Transport runs without disruption despite STRAMM plenary

dnoticias.pt14 September 2026 at 12:51

STRAMM convened a road sector workers' assembly for this Monday, which raised concerns about possible impacts on the region's public transport. The link reference indicated that the assembly could affect public transport routes the following day.

However, up to now, no major disruptions are visible in public transport circulation in the centre of Funchal. O DIÁRIO was present during the morning, near lunchtime, at strategic stops such as Largo do Pelourinho and Avenida do Mar.

In these locations, bus circulation was proceeding without apparent problems, suggesting that the predicted stoppage did not cause significant disturbances to the normal functioning of transport services.

STRAMM is the union responsible for organising this workers' assembly, which represents a potential threat of strike or demonstrations by road sector professionals in the region.

Why this matters

Workers and transport users in Funchal can continue to travel normally, despite STRAMM's summons, which means the feared strike has not materialised. Residents who depend on public transport should be relieved that their daily lives have not been affected.
