The RATP and SNCF unions are calling for a new mobilization this Monday, February 17, 2020 to protest against the proposed pension reform. The consequences? Subways, RER and Transilien lines will see their traffic disrupted this Monday, February 17, 2020. We take a look at RATP's forecasts.
Paris public transport traffic forecasts - Monday, February 17, 2020:
Metro: normal traffic on lines 1, 3, 3bis, 6, 7bis, 9, 10, 11 and 14

What are the alternatives?
While we wait to find out more about the traffic forecasts for public transport, we can already organize ourselves to avoid being caught unprepared. While some people turn to cabs and VTC drivers, others prefer car-sharing or the use of self-service electric scooters. You can also opt for electric bikes or scooters, which now have dedicated parking facilities. Finally, if you're looking for an alternative to telecommuting, you can also head for a coworking café.
And don't forget, for those who paid a navigo pass for the month of December 2019, you have until March 12, 2020 to apply for your refund!
