Throughout the year, public transport in Paris is affected by roadworks. Transilien and RER lines are particularly affected, as are several more occasional metro lines. On Sunday, September 3, 2023, line 9 of the Paris metro will be affected.
Specifically, on Sunday September 3, 2023, line 9 will be completely closed all day, meaning that no trains will run on this metro line"due to modernization work", as RATP states on its website.
RATP adds that all lines connecting closed stations remain accessible and open to passengers. Thus,"only stations with no connecting lines are completely closed to passengers. For other stations, only the platforms on line 9 are closed", explains the Régie.
To help passengers with their journey, RATP is once again providing a bus service. This runs in both directions between Pont de Sèvres and Michel-Ange - Auteuil, then between Nation and Mairie de Montreuil. These buses will operate at the same times as the metro,"with a run every 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the time of day", explains the company. Stopping points will be indicated at the entrances to the stations served.
Users can also take other lines, such as buses 22 and 52 to the west. To the east, they can take metro line 3 or bus N°102.
Metro line 9 will resume normal service at all stations on Monday, September 4, 2023 at 5:30 a.m.
Metro line 9 runs between Mairie de Montreuil to the east of Paris and Pont de Sèvres to the west. Stations served include Nation, République, Strasbourg Saint-Denis, Havre-Caumartin, Franklin-Roosevelt, Trocadéro and Porte de Saint-Cloud.
