Sixty Île-de-France bus lines switch operators as market opens to competition
From 1 March 2026, 60 bus routes in Paris, Seine-Saint-Denis and Hauts-de-Seine are operated by Transdev, RATP Cap IDF and ATM under six-year contracts awarded by Île-de-France Mobilités. Although fares and timetables are unchanged, passengers will see new branding and promised service-quality upgrades. The liberalisation could improve first- and last-mile links for business travellers and expatriate staff commuting to key hubs such as La Défense and the Paris airports.
