Impact Level: Notification

Locations Affected: Lyon, France

Tracking Id: RINTP3613239432

Description:

As per reports, redevelopment work at Lyon Perrache Interchange Centre will disrupt tram services on lines T1 and T2 from 2100 hours (local time) on Monday (16 June) to Thursday (19 June).

• Line T1 will operate only between Debourg and Institut National des Sciences Appliquées (INSA) Einstein stations, skipping Croix-Luizet and Institut Universitaire de Technologie (IUT) Feyssine.
• Line T2 will run partially between Villon and Saint-Priest Bel-Air stations after 2100 hours (local time).
• Relay buses will operate between Villon and Debourg stations, with modified boarding points.

Impact:

• Partial tram services and reliance on relay buses may cause extended commute times for employees, affecting punctuality.
• Businesses dependent on evening freight or staff movement may face delays due to reduced tram availability.
• Higher demand for alternate transport (taxis, ride-sharing) may lead to traffic issues near affected stations.

Recommendations:

It is advised to monitor official website of Transports en commun lyonnais (TCL) at https://www.tcl.fr for real-time service changes and alternate routes.
