Tram traffic has gradually resumed
The front of the tram appears to be badly damaged in the driver's cabin, while the collision hit the tailgate of the truck. No injuries were reported, neither among the passengers of this T5 heading towards Grange-Blanche, nor on the road. A municipal police crew evacuated the passengers, who walked to the nearby Boutasse/Camille-Rousset stop.
Relay buses were quickly set up between the Hôtel-de-Ville Bron and Grange-Blanche stops.
T2 traffic initially resumed gradually, then as soon as 11 a.m., trams were running in both directions again on line T5.
