- The Power Weekend will cause disruptions not only in public-transit tram lines 4 and N4, but also in the broader transportation system, affecting the industry and finance sectors of the region as people might need to adjust their schedules or find alternative modes of transport.
- The finance sector could experience a temporary slowdown due to the impact of the Power Weekend on transportation, as employees might encounter delays and challenges in commuting and thus arriving late for work, potentially affecting productivity.
