The hiccups follow one another. None of the four metro lines is currently running in Lyon, has just announced Keolis, the public transport operator. “Evacuations are in progress” to get out passengers stuck in the cars, he said in a statement. The whole network is down because of a “computer system incident”.
While waiting for the fault to be repaired, relay buses have been deployed to ensure continuity of service as a matter of urgency. However, you will need to be patient. Traffic should not resume for several hours. “The recovery is estimated in the evening”, predicts the Sytral.
In recent weeks, several major breakdowns have been detected on line B of the metro.
