TER traffic will be suspended from September 30 between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille, every day from 8:55 a.m. to 2:55 p.m., until December 13, 2024, warns the SNCF on its website.
Solutions will be put in place, specifies the company, in particular “TER shuttles” between the Saint-Charles and Saint-Antoine stations in Marseille in both directions. For the rest of the journey, a “road substitution” is created. The starting point in Marseille will be located at Square Narvik, in front of the Ibis hotel.
On the Aix-en-Provence/Pertuis side, boarding takes place in front of the SNCF station, and the transport will make stops in both directions, at the Septèmes, Simiane, Gardanne and Meyrargues stations.
The interruption is due to work to “reinforce the walls” thanks to the installation of wire mesh on the Trenche des bosses and the Trenche de Perragallo, near Septème-les-Vallons, according to the SNCF website. The construction site takes place in the middle of the day, “in order not to affect the circulation of TERs circulating during peak hours in the morning and evening“, explains the railway company to the daily La Provence.
The CGT and Sud-Rail unions have already announced their intention to strike from the evening of September 30.
