Disruptions to TGV, TER, and RER service… heading toward a national strike?
This Wednesday, June 10, is likely to be very difficult for passengers… Indeed, the four SNCF railway unions have filed a notice of a one-day strike for this Wednesday. Among other things, they are demanding higher wages, better working conditions—particularly regarding safety—as well as equal rights for all railway workers, regardless of the subsidiary they work for.
A mobilization that, if it goes ahead, could significantly impact Transilien lines, certain RER lines—notably the RER E and D lines— as well as TGVs departing from and arriving in Paris. The SNCF promises to notify its passengers 48 and 72 hours before any disruptions. All travelers affected by a train cancellation will receive an email or text message and will be eligible for a full refund or the option to exchange their ticket…
As for the RATP, however, no disruptions are expected this week…
