Ile-de-France plans post-confinement mobility changes

Ile-de-France Mobilités has announced plans to adapt the region's transport system in preparation for the lifting of confinement measures.

The post-confinement plan is underpinned by several key principles which to ensure the safety of citizens, including:

All companies and administrations should ensure as many employees as possible continue to work from home in telecommuting, to ensure that those who must still travel can do so safely
Ile-de-France Mobilités asks the State to required all public transport travelers to wear face masks, to be enforce by the police
Île-de-France Mobilités asks operators to implement adjust transport offering as quickly as possible from May 11 to allow social distancing to be respected as much as possible
Operators should implement a reinforced cleaning and disinfection plan for rolling stock (trains and buses) but also public spaces in train and metro stations
