Prepare for disruption in the capital
Starting next week, Paris will host the 2024 Paralympic Games, an event of international stature that is generating not only immense excitement but also major logistical adjustments throughout the capital. These adjustments, necessary to guarantee the smooth running of the competitions and ensure the safety of participants and spectators, will inevitably lead to disruptions in traffic and public transport.
Impact on travel in Paris
The areas around the Paralympic venues will be particularly affected by traffic restrictions, temporary street closures and changes to public transport routes. Parisians and visitors are therefore invited to anticipate these disruptions and adapt their travel plans accordingly.
To help you navigate through this period, the government has set up an interactive map detailing the impact on travel throughout the Île-de-France region. This invaluable tool enables you to quickly identify areas of restriction, road closures and changes to transport services.
