The certificate was announced in early May. It aimed to reserve public transport during peak hours for people going to their place of work or having to travel for an urgent reason. This document was the result of consultation between many actors, including the Paris city hall, the Île-de-France region, the SNCF, the RATP, the Medef, the CPME, the CFDT, the CFTC and the Paris-Île CCI. -of France. Objective: allow Ile-de-France residents to move around while limiting the number of passengers in the networks to strengthen respect for social distancing.
In recent hours, as deconfinement has accelerated, voices have been raised calling for the removal of this condition. This is particularly the case of the president (ex-LR) of the capital region, Valérie Pécresse. This Monday, the former minister spoke out for a return to " freedom of movement " in the region. " I wish to delete this certificate [...] but with protective measures. I believe that the wearing of the mask will have to remain compulsory for several more weeks, "until" mid-July, "she believes.
RATP has also increased its offer, gradually reopening stations and increasing its network. Several rules are still valid, such as the wearing of the mandatory mask and the Ile-de-France authority always advises its travelers to limit their journeys " to what is strictly necessary ".
