The São Paulo subway is completely paralyzed on the 23rd, due to a general strike by subway workers.
The stoppage has taken place since the beginning of the morning, and passengers have been waiting for more than four hours for lines 1-Blue, 2-Green, 3-Red and 15-Silver to start working again.
At several stations, queues of people can be seen sitting in front of the transfer access.
As people heard that the trains would run again, they stood around waiting and waiting.
In addition to the major problem of the record congestion that the city is having, because of this strike, there is also the significant increase in the value of cars for the app, at times like this, when demand is very high.
A report on the CBN website commented that rides that cost around R$ 35, on normal days, such as, for example, from Jabaquara station to Sé station, are almost tripled in price, in the range of R$ 90.
The Union of Subway Workers demands the payment of the bonus, the revocation of dismissals due to retirement and other dismissals carried out in 2019, in addition to asking for new hires.
