With 10 metro lines closed and interruptions to bus and RER train lines, public transport in Paris will be “extremely disrupted” on Friday.

Friday looks set to be a day of traffic chaos for commuters. Transport unions have called for a major walk-out in protest against pension reforms. It is the biggest mobilisation at the state-owned transport system Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens (RATP) since a similar strike in October 2007.
