Less frequent trams and buses

Another consequence of the strike movement: the traffic frequencies of trams and buses will be lower on Tuesday.

For trams and busways,

"lines 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 will operate in green day schedules

," says Semitan.

Here is the situation to know for the bus lines:

  • In blue day timetables (normal service): 28, 33, 40, 47, 60, 66, 67, 75, 77, 78, 80, 87, 93, 95, 96, 98, express lines E4, E5, E8, and the circuits of the Chapel.

  • In green day hours: C1, C2, C3, C4, C6, C7, C9, C20, 10, 11, 12, 23, 26, 27, 30, 36, 38, 42, 50, 54, 69, 79, 85 , 86, 89, 97.

  • In yellow day timetables: 59, 81 and the Express E1 line.

  • In purple day schedule: 71 and 91

Navibus and airport shuttles not impacted

Navibus users, like those who want to take the Semitan airport shuttle, will be the best off on Tuesday.

These two services

"will operate normally"

, says Semitan.

Reduced service for Proxitan

The specific Proxitan transport system, offered to people with disabilities, will also be impacted by the day of the strike.

The Semitan announces a

"reduced service"

without giving further details.

One in three TGVs and one Intercité maintained

This is a little better than during the previous event on January 31 when only one in four TGVs had circulated.

For this Tuesday, the SNCF is counting on one in three TGVs in the Pays de la Loire region.

There will also be better on the Intercités side.

If no train will be provided between Nantes and Bordeaux, on the other hand, two round trips are planned during the day between Nantes and Lyon.

TER: no interrupted line

Also improved on the TER side.

No line should be completely cut this Tuesday as was the case on January 31.

On the other hand, traffic will be far from its usual level.

Only three out of ten TER should circulate.

Some lines will be more impacted than others.

Thus, on line 9, between Nantes and La Rochelle, only one coach will provide the connection in the morning between Luçon and La Roche-sur-Yon (departure at 6:35 a.m.) and a train in the evening in the return direction (departure at 7:15 p.m.).

As for line 28 (Nantes-Rennes), it will be cut from Laval.
