Public transport in Ile-de-France will find from Tuesday a "level of supply almost equivalent" to that before the containment in mid-March, operators announced in a joint statement.
In the metro, all of the lines will operate with a frequency of 90% on average (100% on lines 1, 13 and 14) and on the normal time slot, i.e. between 5.30 a.m. and 1.15 a.m. Five stations in their sixties closed since the end of March will reopen: Victor Hugo (line 2), Jacques Bonsergent (line 5), Filles du Calvaire and Porte de Charenton (line 8), Charles Michel (line 10).
The employer's certificate still payable
The tram lines will operate at 100%, less on T4 and T11, the responsibility of the SNCF. The RATP buses will run with a frequency of 80% of normal while all those of the Optile network, in small and large Parisian ring, will run normally. The service will be 100% guaranteed on lines A and B of the RER from 5 a.m. to 1.15 a.m., except on the northern part of line B.
RER C, D, E and all the suburban trains will run until 10 p.m., with almost nine out of ten trains at peak times. Outside of these hours, traffic will go from 55% to 80% depending on the lines.
Because of the rules of distancing which reduce the capacity of public transport by about 80%, the regional authority and the operators always ask businesses and Ile-de-France residents to limit trips as much as possible, to maintain massive teleworking, and to spread the as strongly as possible the schedules of arrivals and departures at workplaces.
An employer certificate or a self-certificate justifying a compelling reason to travel is always required during peak hours, from 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., at least until June 22, while the port mask is mandatory.
