A renewed strike in Munich's public transport sector began at 3:30 AM, called by the Verdi union in the context of a wage conflict affecting 13 cities across Bavaria. The strike has led to significant disruptions across subways, trams, and buses operated by the Munich Transport Company (MVG), with many services left largely inactive until early Sunday morning. However, the Munich S-Bahn and regional buses remain unaffected by the strike, ensuring some level of connectivity for commuters.

As of 8 AM, partial service is available on certain U-Bahn lines, specifically on the stretch from Fürstenried West to Fröttmaning, operating at ten-minute intervals. This limited operation indicates that while some subway services are still functioning, the overall impact of the strike means that many passengers will experience delays and increased wait times. The availability of additional U-Bahn and tram lines will hinge on the turnout of drivers willing to report for duty amid the ongoing labor dispute.

Despite the strike's significant impact on the public transport system, certain tram lines are still operating—specifically tram line 20 at ten-minute intervals and line 25 at twenty-minute intervals. Historically, bus services have continued to see the highest levels of operation during previous strikes, suggesting that those reliant on bus transport may face fewer disruptions compared to other modes of public transport during this event. Following developments in the strike will be crucial for commuters in the region, as the situation evolves based on negotiations and driver participation in the continued labor dispute.
