Twelve building contractors have filed a judicial protest against the Transport Federation claiming damages of €1m a day as a result of the transport strike. The protest was filed this morning. They said their employees were unable to go to work and, because of road closures, raw material such as concrete was ruined.

Language schools are also expected to file a judicial protest in court against the Transport Federation, claiming damages suffered as a result of the transport strike, informed sources said.

The language schools have complained that they had to hire cars over the past few days to ferry students from host families to schools.
