This Thursday night, operations will close "early", with the last departures "registered between 10pm and 11pm".
On Friday, the metro will only operate "during peak hours", between Senhora da Hora and Estádio do Dragão stations.
SMAQ called a general strike for December 6th due to the lack of clarification from the Government regarding the relationship between railway accidents and alcohol levels among these workers and to demand adequate safety conditions.

Sloppy journalism. Machinists are people who operate machines. The correct English name for " maquinistas" is train drivers. Thanks.
