Strike transport in Rome, between the stop and failure on a Friday in passion of the romans – The Republic

All of the metro, the Roma-Lido including, closed from 20 until the end of the service. The Terms-Centocelle active with a strong reduction of the rides, the Rome -CivitaViterbo active with a reduction in racing on the urban section. Possible cancellations and suspensions of lines on the network, Atac and Roma Tpl, including the night bus. The transport situation at the end of a day divided between breaks, reversals, and failures. But also road crossings clogged, especially in the key areas of the city, and therefore, clogging of the circulating buses, two wheels that most of the usually zig zag between the cars drawn up; traffic lights that are tri ggered from red to green and red again but without the traffic, benefit from it much. Today in Rome it was the chaos of the transport to the 24-hour strike called by the trade union Usb. The agitation has affected the network, Atac (bus, tram, metro, railways Roma-Lido, Roma-Civitacastellana-Viterbo and Termini-Centocelle), and the lines, devices managed by the company roma Tpl.

The day. At 8.30 am on the dot, the time that marks the end of the band is guaranteed (then it will be from 17 to 20), InfoAtac has informed that the meter C and the Terms-Centocelle would have made the last race and then they would be closed. And so it was. At 8.30 am on the Rome-Lido was still active, with possible reductions of racing, while the trains of the Rome-Viterbo were gradually abolished. Same goes for the subway: initially active, with strong reductions of corse, 8.35, A, C, and railroad Terms-Centocelle have completed the latest rides and have closed. The two lines have resumed at 17, in respect of the range of warranty.

Chapter metro B: to make matters worse the dose of the strike – after the incident of yesterday, two injured and a third person in a state of shock for the separation of a portion of the door – there is also a technical problem to Termini station in the direction of Laurentina. The service, therefore, strongly slowed down. Scared the passengers, who were released from the convoy spilling on the docks, perhaps also because yesterday, on the same line, a convoy had lost the leaf of a door. Before the evacuation of the train, which would have stopped about 15 metres from the Termini railway station, the speakers have spread a message that is addressed to passengers that depart from the gates. After having spread to several times the message, it was decided to block the train and proceed to the evacuation, with scenes of panic among users, many of them are also angry with the driver. Stop at 9.25 also the B1, in Bologna-the Ionian sea has been suspended. At 9.45 a.m. the T erms-Centocelle has been reactivated with a strong reduction in racing: there is talk of a train every thirty minutes. Problems also for the tram service are limited to Porta maggiore to the lines 5 and 14, suspended by is Porta Maggiore-Galen 19.

But not only trains, and buses, in fits and starts: in different areas of the city, the traffic is slowed down and the roads are blocked. Still closed – because of a failure to the main water last Tuesday – via Santa Croce in Gerusalemme. The traffic was diverted towards viale Castrense and the neighbouring streets but there are still many hardships. Long queues from 9am this morning in the area of the Vatican on via Anastasio II, between piazza Pio Xi and viale Degli Ammiragli dive traffic is slowed in the direction of via Cipro. Slow down even the via Flaminia, where the traffic is slow between junction Grande Raccordo Anulare and the via di Tor di Quinto in the direction of Rome. Still, on the via Cassia in the direction of via of the Two Bridges slow traffic and in v ia Appia Nuova, between Via dell’ airport opens and via delle Capannelle. Finally, there are difficulties in the via Cristoforo Colombo towards viale Carlo Levi and Via Palos.

Adjust the service of the Railroads of the State, and therefore no problem for the links to and from the airport of Fiumicino. If anything, in this case there is a problem of overcrowding because this service ends up with the provide an alternative solution for those on the inside of the ring the metropolitan to want to get as close as possible to the places of work and limit the traits
