Baden-Württemberg: SWEG bus warning strikes in Wiesloch, Sinsheim, Dörzbach and Lauda on 2–4 November 2026 (ver.di)

The union ver.di has called the drivers of SWEG Bus to a further warning strike at four sites in Baden-Württemberg: Wiesloch and Sinsheim from Monday 2 to Wednesday 4 November 2026, and Dörzbach and Lauda-Königshofen on Monday 2 and Tuesday 3 November. It is the fifth stoppage in the current bargaining round; SWEG's previous bus strike was on 23 October.

What to expect: SWEG announces cancellations on the regional bus lines run from these depots — in the Rhein-Neckar district around Wiesloch and Sinsheim and in the Hohenlohe and Main-Tauber areas around Dörzbach and Lauda — on the strike days; the company publishes the cancelled trips in its traffic notices. All other SWEG services, including its trains, are not affected. Check SWEG's website or app before travelling, especially for school buses.

Why: ver.di says the talks are stuck and that SWEG refuses to negotiate protection against redundancies when routes are re-tendered; the union is also pressing its nationwide pay claim in the railway collective agreement round.
