TRANSPORT – The renewable strike at the SNCF against the pension reform enters its 14th day this Monday, March 20.

The group expects traffic similar to that of this weekend with four out of five TGVs and two thirds of the TER maintained.

SNCF Voyageurs also plans to provide 60% of its Intercités connections, but no night trains will run.

On the Ile-de-France rail network, traffic will be disrupted, in particular on line D of the RER and R of the Transilien with only 40% of the trains maintained.

There will only be a third of the trains on line U and half on RER B (to the north). RER C and lines J, L and N will see two out of three trains running.

Normal traffic in the Paris metro

Finally, three quarters of the scheduled trains are maintained on the RER E and line P.

On the other hand, the service will be normal or almost on the RER A, lines H, K, T4, T11 and T13.

In the Paris metro, the RATP announces normal traffic, as well as on the bus and tram networks, as in recent days.

On Tuesday, SNCF Voyageurs is still planning a disrupted service.

On Friday, all the unions in the group had announced their intention to continue the renewable strike until the withdrawal of the text of the pension reform.

A day of massive mobilization is scheduled for Thursday, the day chosen by the confederations for a new interprofessional strike.
