Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV) workers have called a series of stoppages that will affect the metro service on some of the key dates of the Fallas 2025, such as the Crida (February 23) or the mascletás. In total, 1,300 employees are called to support the mobilizations, which have already taken place this February.
The union sections of the Sindicato Independiente Ferroviario (SIF), the Federación de Servicios para la Movilidad y el Consumo (UGT), Comisiones Obreras (CCOO), the Sindicato Ferroviario-Intersindical Valenciana (SF-IV), the Sindicato Español de Maquinistas (SEMAF) and the Confederación General del Trabajo en FGV (CGT-FGV) have called these stoppages in protest against unilateral modifications in working conditions.
Among the main reasons for the strike are the changes in the work schedule that affect family reconciliation, the elimination of the voluntary service for January 1, 2025 and the lack of response after the flood of last October 29.
The strikes called during the Fallas 2025 are as follows:
- February 23: From 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm and from 6:45 pm to 8:30 pm.
- March 1: From 17:25 to 20:00 hours.
- March 2: From 13:30 to 15:15 hours and from 19:30 to 20:55 hours.

- March 14: From 12:00 to 14:30 hours.
