A metro station closed during the RATP strike. - MARIO FOURMY / SIPA

Any good news for users of the Paris metro? After 45 days of strike, Unsa, the first RATP trade union organization and very active in the movement against pension reform since the beginning of December, calls in a press release to "redirect, on Monday, the unlimited movement to get involved on another form of action. "

Laurent Djebali, secretary general of Unsa RATP traction, explained to the Parisian that "many agents need to take a break and recharge the batteries". The impact of the strike on the January pay of striking workers will also leave their mark.

Always "unlimited" mobilization

Consequently, the trade union organization, "determined to continue the fight against this unjust and accounting reform", therefore wishes to initiate "another form of action", without specifying its nature. It is "out of the question to let go", specifies Laurent Djebali, who considers "important and urgent that the confederations no longer act in dispersed order".

Still convinced that "the movement will go on forever" in a few days, Laurent Djebali notes that on Friday, "only the three-line general meetings decided [Friday] to maintain the strike indefinite" and that as a result, metro traffic, buses, RER and trams should resume on Monday, after several days of improvement.

For Saturday, the RATP announced that seven out of sixteen metro lines should operate with normal traffic. Traffic forecasts for Monday will be announced on Sunday afternoon.
