The situation in Ile-de-France public transport has improved recently, but not all lines will return to normal in April, as requested by the Ile-de-France Mobilités (IDFM) organization, announced on Friday March 24, the CEO of RATP, Jean Castex. "It's going much better, even if the account is not there yet," Valérie Pécresse, president of IDFM, also told reporters on Friday, after summoning the leaders of the operators concerned for a progress report.
Noting that the pension reform protests had "clearly disrupted the recovery on some lines", she recalled the regional transport authority's demand for a return to 100% supply in April - even if attendance peaks during the week at 90% of its level before the health crisis. Disruptions since last summer are due to staff shortages, recruitment difficulties, latent strikes and increased absenteeism.
