Will the Marseille bus revolution take place?
The Aix-Marseille Metropolis with the RTM launches a broad consultation on an online participatory platform on December 15
and this until February 28: https://participer-bus-2025.ampmetropole.fr/
The inhabitants of Marseille and its agglomeration can give their opinion on the brand new bus network with in particular the creation of 20 main lines who promise a rate of one bus every 6 minutes from 4:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. 7 days a week.
Consultation on the internet
The results of two years of study are displayed on the RTM website. We visualize what becomes of our line and we give our opinion through a very precise questionnaire on what we can improve: timetable, frequency, without recommending “for a bus at the bottom of your home”.
Field actions
If we don’t have internet, 15 suggestion boxes will be set up in town halls. Three ambassadors will spend the 19th half-day in contact with users. Four forums will take place in the evening, as well as thematic workshops. The goal is to increase attendance by 50%. This also involves the road system: two-thirds of the work will be finished by the end of 2024. All buses will be electric.
More less crowded buses!
The consultation with the users of the popular districts of Marseilles seems rather clear. There is a big difference with those who live in the center-center where the transport offers are more numerous, If we had to summarize the expectations: more buses less crowded!
