Request-based descent in the bus is now possible after 10 PM! A measure aimed at increasing safety and security.
For several months now in Greater Paris, the request-based bus descent has been tested, and it is now being expanded to the Petite Couronne. Request-based descent means you can ask your driver to stop as close as possible to your destination, between two bus stops.
Why stop between two bus stops?
Traveling alone at night through deserted streets can be unpleasant. Therefore, to combat this feeling of insecurity, Île-de-France Mobilités is experimenting with and rolling out request-based bus descents. Request-based descent is now available after 10 PM
Can I get off wherever I want?
Yes… and no. The requested stop must be on the route of the line. And for the exact disembarkation point, the driver will decide! Of course, as close as possible to your destination, well-lit, with good visibility and pedestrian access nearby.
How do I indicate where I want to get off?
You just need to inform the driver, at least one stop before your destination. The driver will then suggest the best place for you to disembark safely.
Request-based bus descent at night: Soon to be widespread?
Request-based descent is now included in all contracts between Île-de-France Mobilités and the operators running our buses.
