News monitoringMétro line 6 — Charles de Gaulle–Étoile ↔ Nation
More than half of line 6 runs on a viaduct with the Eiffel Tower view from Bir-Hakeim and Passy. It is a driver-operated line, and its Montparnasse and Denfert-Rochereau interchanges get very busy when RER B is disrupted.
What a strike means on this line
Line 6 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
- Charles de Gaulle–Étoile
- Trocadéro
- Bir-Hakeim
- Montparnasse–Bienvenüe

Alternatives during a strike
- Line 2 — The northern half of the same ring — Étoile to Nation via Barbès.
