Traffic at RATP will be further disrupted on Sunday as the unlimited strike against pension reform enters its 32nd day, the company announced on Saturday.

Two lines will be completely closed (4, and 7bis) and 14 will operate partially, or normally (1, 14 and Orlyval), in a scenario similar to that of Saturday. Metro traffic is mainly concentrated in the afternoon. "Since commuting is less frequent on weekends, RATP will concentrate its maximum efforts in the afternoon to guarantee minimum service," writes the railway company.
