New disappointment for RER B users. According to the RATP, the OrlyVal is no longer running this Saturday morning following a technical incident. First announced for 12 p.m., the resumption of traffic is finally expected at 7 p.m. this Saturday on the line managed jointly by the RATP and the SNCF. A replacement bus is set up in Antony.

This disruption occurs in a tense context with the Ile-de-France residents. Some fear significant disruptions in the run-up to the 2024 Paris Olympics, while the RATP's ability to ensure functional traffic is called into question.
Without forgetting the risk of a strike by transport staff, which would further threaten the smooth flow of transport for residents and tourists this summer.
