SFM and Safety: A Partial Victory — But Is That Enough?

Answer

Is the Mallorca train system safe enough for daily commuters right now?

The recent agreement between SFM management and the works council is a positive step, but it does not solve every safety concern. Some measures have been agreed, while broader issues such as clear routines, independent oversight and long-term maintenance still need work. For commuters, that means daily operations may feel more stable, but the overall safety picture is still not fully settled.
