Strike-preparedness score
France has the highest strike frequency in Europe. Some weeks are predictably riskier than others. Pick your date and mode of transport — the tool returns the historical likelihood and a Plan B.
What this tool actually solves
Two-thirds of French strikes are predictable by date (rentrée sociale in September, May 1, autumnal protests). The remaining one-third depend on local issues (e.g. a factory redundancy announcement). This tool maps the date to a historical baseline.
How to read the result
The result gives a strike likelihood score (0–100), the historical reason, and the practical Plan B for the chosen mode.
Limitations
A specific strike announcement (e.g. a one-day SNCF strike on March 18) is not predictable 6 weeks before. This tool gives the historical baseline for the chosen date — the actual likelihood on a specific day may be much higher if a strike is announced.
