Only one out of two trains will run on the northern axis of the RER B, while three out of four trains are expected in the south.
As for the Gare du Nord interconnection, it will be maintained and no change of train will be necessary according to the SNCF.
This social movement is part of a period where delays and frequency problems in Ile-de-France transport are being singled out.
On Monday, the leaders of SNCF and RATP were interviewed by the Île-de-France transport authority, which is demanding a return to 100% of the service.
Recently, users have had to face recurring problems on line 14 of the Paris metro, for example.
Between operating concerns and work for the extension of the line planned for June, the route between Mairie-de-Saint-Ouen and Olympiades put passengers' nerves to the test at the beginning of January.
