Fewer journeys to be made by walking alone in the dark.
This is the principle of "stopping on demand", between two stations, tested for a year in Toulouse.
Thirty passengers used it.
It's not much, but the possibility only concerned two lines - Linéo 1 and Linéo 2 - and this start made it possible to confirm that these stops can intervene "in a very fluid way", notes the mayor Jean-Luc Moudenc (ex-LR ), without disturbing the general operation.
Tisséo has therefore chosen the symbolic date of this Friday, November 25, International Day for the fight against violence against women, to extend this service to the nine other lines of the Linéo network, used by 125,000 users per day.
Vulnerable people can theoretically make use of it from "10 p.m. to 12:30 a.m.", as long as the driver considers that there is no danger in making this stop in the middle of a journey.
Ask for Angela
Another initiative, the commercial agencies of Tisséo (in Basso-Cambo, Jean-Jaurès, Arènes, Aéroport and Borderouge) will join on Friday, as will 64 shops or restaurants in the city, the “Ask Angela” network.
They will thus become “places of refuge”, identifiable by a large yellow sticker stuck on the window, where any woman feeling in danger can be welcomed and comforted by staff trained in gender-based, domestic or sexual violence.
