Strike CalendarMétro line 3 — Pont de Levallois–Bécon ↔ Gallieni
Line 3 links Saint-Lazare, Opéra and République, so on a strike day it carries commuter overflow from Transilien services and gets crowded even when it is running a decent frequency.
What a strike means on this line
Line 3 is driver-operated, so an RATP strike directly reduces its service. Expect a peak-hours-only timetable, longer waits and packed trains, or a partial closure of the outer sections.
Main stations served
- Pont de Levallois–Bécon
- Villiers
- Saint-Lazare
- Opéra
- Bourse
- Réaumur–Sébastopol
- République
- Père Lachaise
- Gallieni
Alternatives during a strike
- Line 9 — Parallel east–west via Grands Boulevards; connect at République or Havre-Caumartin.
- Bus 20 — Gare Saint-Lazare to Gare de Lyon via Opéra and République.
- Line 14 — Driverless, reachable at Saint-Lazare, and reliable when line 3 is thinned.
