Paris RATP buses hit by strike today: 8 lines suspended all day, 13 more disrupted — check before you travel

RATP bus services in Paris and the Île-de-France region were disrupted on Thursday, October 29, by a local labour action. According to the operator's service update, several lines were suspended or disrupted all day, and passengers were advised to check the next departures for their own line before setting off rather than relying on the usual timetable.

Which lines are affected

Suspended all day: lines 26, 38, 40, 48, 60, 202, 245 and PC. Disrupted all day: lines 46, 56, 57, 76, 77, 96, 102, 109, 115, 122, 129 and 318, plus night line N51. A disrupted line does not mean every departure is cancelled, but the operator did not specify which departures would run, and no standard frequency is guaranteed, so waiting times are hard to estimate.

The disruption applies to the specific routes listed; it does not mean the bus network as a whole is suspended. RATP directs passengers to its traffic information page for the next departures from their chosen stop, and the Bonjour RATP app lets users search a route and check alerts before deciding when to leave or finding another connection.
