In detail, this interruption to traffic on line 1 will last 7 hours, and will affect the entire line. In other words, all of line 1 will be closed to users during the modernization work.

In a press release published on its official website, RATP announces the interruption of traffic on the entire metro line 1 this Sunday, April 21, 2024, from 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
