Strike at the RATP: some disturbances in the metro, the RER still “very disturbed”
The days follow one another and look alike on the transport network in Paris and Ile-de-France. For almost ten days, a renewable strike against the pension reform has caused disruptions on the RATP network. On the metro side, the situation is improving day by day, however it remains very complicated for the RER.
The RATP forecasts disrupted traffic in the metro for Wednesday, in particular on five lines in Paris and “very disrupted” traffic on the RER A and B lines.
Since Tuesday March 7, the first day of a rather well-attended strike on the rails, the situation has quickly improved for Parisian transport users, revealing a fairly weak mobilization among RATP agents, unlike the 2019 strike. against the previous pension reform project. Update on traffic forecasts for the next two days.
