There will be disruptions to public transport services in and around Rome on 20 January as a result of a transport strike.
Services on the city’s two metro lines and on the Rome - Giardinetti, Rome - Civita Castellana-Viterbo and Rome - Ostia Lido railway lines will be out of operation between 08.30 and 17.00 and then again from 20.00 until the end of service, but disruptions can be expected throughout the day.
City bus and tram services will not be affected by the strike.
