The next strike by bus drivers will happen on Monday, 01.04.2019. This comes within few weeks after the second major transportation strike in Berlin. This time busses, tram and U-Bahn will not run. S-Bahn will be running as usual.

The strike starts at 3.30am in the morning until 10pm in the evening.

Das Angebot der #BVG ist unzureichend – Deshalb rufen wir am Montag zum #Warnstreik auf!
Die 14.600 Beschäftigten fordern:
eine verbesserte Eingruppierung
eine Absenkung der Arbeitszeit

Tips during such situations:

• Plan your day well in advance

• For those who are working, try to commute via S-Bahn or car sharing services in the morning. You can be sure that the S-Bahn will be overcrowded

• Sometimes transportation apps like the DB Navigator might not show the updated travel information based on the strike. If an information sheet is kept at every station with updated information, please make sure to have a look at it

• Be aware that you could also expect delays for several hours after the strike is over
