Railway strikes will disrupt train traffic this week in Belgium
Belgian rail traffic will be disrupted during this week, as two separate strike actions will take place in the coming days as rail unions will form a common front and strike on Monday to Thursday night, while conductors have called for another 48-hour strike from Wednesday to Friday.
The unions are protesting against the Federal Government's 'insufficient' funding of SNCB and Infrabel. In addition, the ASTB/SACT union that represents train conductors is also planning their own 48-hour strike from Wednesday 30 November until Friday 2 December, as they condemn the lack of safety and deteriorating conditions for their workers.
