Metro line 6: traffic partially interrupted this Sunday

As work continues on the Grand Paris Express project in the Paris region, with line 15 Sud due to enter service in summer 2026, several Paris metro lines are experiencing disruption due to modernization work. This is particularly true of line 6. After a recent partial interruption of traffic on November 24, traffic is once again disrupted this weekend on this famous Paris metro line, which links Charles de Gaulle - Étoile to Nation via Trocadéro, Montparnasse and Place d'Italie.

Specifically, line 6 will be closed all day this Sunday, December 8, 2024, between Charles de Gaulle - Étoile and Trocadéro stations. On this section, Boissière, Kléber and Charles de Gaulle - Étoile stations are closed to passengers, and Trocadéro station becomes the temporary terminus.

The Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens explains that this partial interruption to traffic on line 6 is to enable the deployment of the new-generation MP89 trains. "The adaptation of infrastructure to this new rolling stock and the modernization of installations will be completed by 2026, with the modification of rail signaling installations in the Nation and Charles de Gaulle Étoile zones, and online testing of the new train control system.

To help passengers make the most of their journey, RATP has announced the introduction of replacement buses. These will serve the affected section, between Charles de Gaulle - Étoile and Trocadéro.

In detail, these replacement buses will stop and depart from Charles de Gaulle - Etoile (departing from 2 avenue Kléber), Kléber, Boissière and Trocadéro (departing from 93 avenue Kléber).
