TGV train traffic will be “normal” Tuesday October 1 for the day of social mobilization in favor of salaries and pensions, announced the SNCF on Sunday September 29. The circulation of certain regional trains (TER, Transilien) and Intercités trains could be “slightly” disrupted, adds the railway company. Line by line forecasts will be communicated on Monday.

Several unions (the CGT, Solidaires and FSU), joined by youth organizations, are calling for a strike and demonstration on Tuesday to demand the repeal of the pension reform and an increase in wages.

The Parisian demonstration, which will start from Place Denfert-Rochereau at 2 p.m., will take place just before the Prime Minister’s general policy speech, at 3 p.m., which will set the course for his policy, while many social issues (insurance -unemployment, employment of seniors, in particular) remained unresolved.
