After experimenting with on-demand alighting on dozens of bus lines for over six months, RATP and Ile-de-France Mobilités are rolling out the possibility of alighting between two stops, to get closer to home, from 10pm. From September 1, 2023, all bus lines in the capital and its inner suburbs, including Noctiliens, will be affected by thismore personalized service forIle-de-France public transport users.
This highly useful measure, which has proved its effectiveness, serves to reinforce the feeling of safety, particularly for women, by bringing passengers as close as possible to their destination. Descent on demand is particularly useful in the less densely populated areas of the region, where stops are often far away, and can be a source of anxiety in the evening or at night. Accessible to all, descent on demand involves asking to get off at least one stop before the destination. The driver then suggests the best place to get off safely, through the front door only.
After 1 a.m., Noctiliens will take over from regular bus services. To protect passengers, asingle alert telephone number , 31.17,has been in operation for several months .
