Because of a warning strike by the Ver.di union, no subways and trams are to run in Munich on Thursday and Friday.
The Ver.di union announced on Tuesday that around half of the buses would also be canceled.
From the start of operations on Thursday to the end of operations on Friday, all employees of the Munich Transport Company (MVG) are called on to go on warning strikes.
The action was announced together with the climate activists from Fridays for Future.
The organization is calling for a global climate strike on Friday.
The Munich S-Bahn trains are not affected by the work stoppages, their operator is Deutsche Bahn.
According to Ver.di, some of the buses are not on strike either, they are operated by private providers.
This also includes the explicit school buses.
