2024-01-22: A strike has been scheduled by the taxi drivers on Wednesday (24 January) in Toulouse city, Occitania Region, against the proposed de-convention from the primary health insurance fund, causing traffic disruptions. Reportedly, the strike will begin at Toulouse-Blagnac airport at 6:30 am (local time) with a snail-like operation on the Toulouse ring road and will culminate in a downtown rally at 11 am (local time) where they plan to meet with the director of social security. Additionally, another strike has been scheduled on Monday (29 January) across the country.
If the strike proceeds as scheduled and is followed by enough workers, local traffic disruptions are to be expected. Before and after official strike hours, disruptions are also possible due to organisational reasons. Travellers should schedule additional time for their journey.
