The Syndicat CGT has called for a general strike tomorrow in response to the governments planned changes to the “code du travail”
What does this mean for everyday life? It means there are going to be protests / marches taking place in the city center.
In the past they’ve involved scuffles between the police and the protestors (Though for the most part it’s the casseur / hooligans) Tear gas may very well get used so if you’re not protesting and can avoid the area I’d recommend you do.
The protest kicks off in Commerce at 13:30 though public transport will be affected before that so if you’ve got plans to get places make sure to plan ahead.
En raison d’une manifestation au départ de Commerce à Nantes le jeudi 21 septembre, l’itinéraire des bus et tramways circulant dans le centre ville est modifié de 13h00 à 18h30 (horaires indicatifs)
Retrouvez vos tramways et bus aux points de coupures habituels. Les horaires des lignes concernées ne seront pas respectés.
You can find out more about how public transport will be affected on the TAN website.
