(1) There are usually fairly strong legal restrictions against hiring scabs. Especially for public sector unions. (2) True, but the public cannot use the infrastructure that they paid dearly to build and have some claim of ownership to.

(1) The SCOTUS ruled in NLRB v Mackay Radio that hiring scabs was legal. To the best of my knowledge there are no additional restrictions specific to public sector unions. You are requested to provide documentation for your claim. (2) It isn't the union stopping them from using that infrastructure, it is the government and their own lack of skills in its operation.
