as of Friday afternoon, the commune’s petition had received more than 650 signatures.

The Ile-de-France region and a dozen associations of public transport users launched a petition to the state on Thursday to pay for the loss of revenue related to the outbreak of the coronavirus, reports franceinfo. According to the Region, which is threatening to suspend public transport in Île de France already this summer, this loss is estimated at 2.6 billion euros.

“The emergency is real”

The urgency is real, write the signatories of this petition. The state is currently proposing 425 million euros. An amount that Stéphane Beaudet, vice-president of the Ile-de-France region in charge of transport, considers insufficient, and who, together with our colleagues, estimates that “for one month of July, it is 400 million euros that we should give to SNCF and RATP.”

The region had already declared a suspension of payments on July 8 last year, saying it could no longer pay the railway company and the Régie autonome des transports parisiens.
