ROME - Protests in air travel, local public transport, railways and schools. It was announced Friday that there would be a strike across various sectors across Italy. 

 From Thursday at 9:00 p.m. workers belonging to C.U.B. Trasporti di R.F.I., who maintain the railways, were taking part in a 24-hour strike. 

 This came during a period in which intensive works across many tracks are taking place.

 In the same sector the workers of Cobas Lavoro Privato and the National Assembly of R.F.I. Maintenance workers were also on strike. 

 The strike was not due to affect Trenitalia but this did not exclude regular delays and cancellations. 

 For those who were intending to fly instead between Milan, Venice and Pisa the workers of C.U.B. in Linate and Malpensa, Flai T.S. in Venice and Filcams C.G.I.L. in Pisa also voted to strike. 

 Public transport was due to be on strike nationally for 4 hours between 8:30 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.,however, this was to vary from city to city. 

  Milan was running a regular schedule with the metro, buses and trams all in service with the strike ending at 12:45 p.m.

 In Rome metro A, B, C, the Termini-Giardinetti, and buses were running but there was a possible reduction in the number of services. 

 In Naples according to E.A.V. the strike was due to be between 7:32 p.m. and 11:32 p.m. on the Circumvesuviana. 

 In Bologna there was also regular service as a strike had not been announced locally. 

 In schools, some disruption was predicted due to a full day strike announced by the Confederazione sindicale lavoratori europei autonomi (C.S.L.E.) for all educational staff in municipal schools.
