Renfe has specified the minimum services that will be applied in connection with the general strike called for November 11 across the whole country. As the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility has detailed this Monday in a statement, in the commuter rail (Cercanías) service, 75% of trains will be guaranteed during the periods of highest demand.
The peak schedule defined by Renfe includes 06.00 to 09.00 hours, 13.30 to 15.30 hours, and 18.30 to 20.30 hours. Outside of those time slots, throughout the rest of the day, the minimum services are reduced to 50% of the usual service.
In the case of Medium-Distance trains, an average of 65% of train movements has been set, while for High-Speed and Long-Distance services, minimum services equivalent to 73% of the trains planned for a normal day have been decreed.
For Freight train traffic, the Ministry has determined that 26% of the scheduled services will run.
These mobilizations will not be the only ones that affect Renfe, since the Spanish Rail Drivers Union (Semaf) maintains its own strike call for Tuesday 10 and Thursday 12 November.
