After dark years, the Régie is doing its utmost to win the gold medal during the great sports festival in the capital this summer. The RATP should provide no less than 70% of the travel for the fifteen million people expected in Paris this summer during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
“I'm not saying there will be zero incidents; it's impossible. But in the end we will meet the challenge of transporting passengers without any major hiccups,” says CEO Jean Castex. The first Olympic Games in history where 100% of trips must be made by public transport, the public group will be on the front line and its performance scrutinized. The Olympics are going to shake up and we will have to go to coal, says CEO of RATp, Jean Cast Ex. The metro, the RER and the buses have not regained their pre-Covid punctuality and are all asking the same question: why would it work this summer with an unprecedented influx of tourists?
