The 2025 budget for Île-de-France Mobilités was voted on this Wednesday by the regional council. It notably includes the establishment of a single rate of 2.50 euros for trains and RER and 2 euros for buses and trams. The price of the Navigo increases to 88.80 euros.
The Île-de-France Mobilités transport authority (IDFM) validated this Wednesday, December 11, its budget for the year 2025 which, a big novelty, provides for a single-price ticket across the entire Ile-de-France network and an increase in the Navigo pass by 2.8%, in order to finance investments.
Transport prices in the Ile-de-France region will experience an upheaval next year with the appearance of a single price of 2.50 euros for metros, trains and RER throughout Île-de-France. Bus and tram journeys will cost 2 euros, regardless of the location and distance traveled. This big price bang will cost IDFM 30 million euros, out of 4 billion in revenue linked to the sale of transport tickets, according to the authority.
New users expected
The president of IDFM, Valérie Pécresse, hopes to cover this expense by welcoming new users to public transport, attracted by this simpler and more advantageous pricing, especially for those who make long journeys with many connections.
But for the regional left, it is the increases in the Navigo pass or the Imagine R pass (for schools and students) which will finance this reform. “What Valérie Pécresse gives with one hand, she takes back with the other,” denounces this political group.
The Navigo pass, which allows you to travel anywhere in the Paris region, will increase to 88.80 euros per month, instead of 86.40 euros this year. This increase was expected and corresponds to an agreement signed between IDFM and the State in 2023, guaranteeing an increase in revenues paid by businesses and local authorities.
A Navigo at 93 euros minimum in 2028
This agreement makes it possible to limit the increase in prices for users to the level of inflation +1% until 2031. “According to our estimates, this agreement will necessarily increase the monthly cost of the Navigo pass to a minimum of 93 euros and 98 euros maximum in 2028”, lamented the group of the communist, environmentalist and citizen left of the Regional Council, in a press release.
Next year, IDFM plans to devote “12.9 billion euros to the operation of the transport network”, two thirds of which are intended to remunerate the RATP and SNCF, the main transport operators in Île-de-France. .
The authority also plans to spend 3.7 billion euros on investment, notably in new metros, the MF19, the first examples of which will be deployed next year on line 10 of the metro.
Furthermore, the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games, which gave rise to a strong but temporary increase in prices, “left no debt in their wake”, rejoiced IDFM.
