- In a move to bolster Paris’ standing as a 24-hour city, Valérie Précresse, president of Île-de-France (the governing body of the Paris region), announced April 13 that the French capital will begin a trial of all-night service on selected tram and metro lines starting this September. Metro Report International reports that Précresse provided the details of the trial in an interview with Le Parisien. The project will keep six metro lines and three tram routes open all night one Saturday a month beginning Sept. 14 and ending on March 7 next year. Metro lines 1, 2, 5, 6, 9 and 14 and tram routes T2, T3a and T3b will see 24-hour service under the trial, but not all stations will be open all night. On the weekends in question, service will operate from 5:30 a.m. Saturday to 12:30 a.m. Monday. Frequencies on some connecting overnight bus routes will also be increased.
