Already in normal times, traffic is not always fluid, as we recently proved in our survey of waiting times in Ile-de-France transport.
But this Thursday even more, a day of "galley" is announced because of the mobilization against the pension reform wanted by Emmanuel Macron.
By the admission of the Minister Delegate for Transport, travel is likely to be very complicated, with “strong disruptions”.
And Clément Beaune to invite to “telework when possible”.
Metro lines 8, 10 and 11 will not run.
Traffic will be very disrupted on lines 2, 3, 3 bis, 5, 6, 7, 7 bis, 9, 12 and 13. It will be normal on lines 1 and 14. Finally, 1 train out of 2 will run at peak on line 4 and 1 train out of 4 at off-peak hours, with risks of saturation.

The debates in Parliament on the pension reform project should end on March 26, the deadline for a final adoption of the text at the end of the 50-day period.
The date was indicated by the President of the Assembly Yaël Braun-Pivet (Renaissance) during the Conference of Presidents of the Assembly.
The highly contested reform project, via an amending Social Security financing bill (PLFSSR), will be presented next Monday to the Council of Ministers.
The total period of examination in Parliament of 50 days runs from the receipt of documents by the Presidency of the Assembly, which should take place on January 28 for a start of the period on January 29.
MEPs could start discussions in committee on January 30.
As expected, the examination in the hemicycle will start on February 6, and for nine sitting days - February 9 is a day reserved for texts from the PS group.
The National Assembly will thus have until February 17 at midnight to complete the first reading of the text, ie twenty calendar days in total divided between committee and hemicycle.
If the deputies have not voted for the reform within this period, faced with the obstruction announced by the left, the government will be able to seize the Senate of its initial text, modified by the amendments voted by the Assembly and to which it is favorable.
The right-wing dominated Senate is expected to discuss the reform bill in early March in session.
He must decide in fifteen days.
In total, the fifty-day period would therefore end on March 26 at midnight.
If the Parliament has not decided then, the provisions of the draft can be implemented by ordinance by the government.
