Strike of SNCF switchers: what traffic forecasts for the “maxi-chassé-cross” of the holidays?. “The information available to date suggests almost normal traffic next weekend, with possibly some localized disruptions,” said this source in a message sent to AFP.

Switchers are called to mobilize to demand "a real massive hiring plan", an "increase in the operational circulation bonus" to 300 euros compared to 60 euros currently. "The mobilization is likely to be significant in the Alps, the Paris region or New Aquitaine", says Sud-Rail federal secretary.
