Public transport across Dijon faces a major shakeup this weekend as a downtown demonstration forces Keolis Dijon multimodalité to overhaul its tram and bus networks on the afternoon of Saturday, October 31, 2026, infos-dijon.com reported.
Tram Disruptions and Plan B Bus Replacements
Commuters relying on the T1 and T2 tram lines will see their usual schedules altered significantly. From the morning hours, both lines will operate on a reduced frequency of one tram every 10 minutes, stretching to every 20 minutes in the evening. The real operational shift occurs between 12:30 PM and 7:30 PM, when tram circulation pauses entirely in the affected zones. During this seven-hour window, replacement buses dubbed “Plan B” step in to bridge the gap. These vehicles will run every eight minutes on the T1 route and every 12 minutes on the T2 route. Passengers can locate designated boarding stops using platform-end signage and yellow information strips.
Altered Bus Routes and Shared Urban Spaces
Standard bus lines across the Divia network will adopt adapted timetables, with schedule sheets made available on Friday, October 30. As the afternoon demonstration unfolds and crowds move through the city center, bus routes—including the tram replacement shuttles—remain subject to real-time diversions. Keolis advises travelers to monitor live traffic updates via the DiviaMobilités application or website before setting out.
Micro-mobility and parking infrastructure bear the brunt of the downtown street closures as well. DiviaVélodi self-service bicycle stations numbered 11 Wilson, 14 Préfecture, 19 République-Rousseau, 24 Marceau-Jardillier, 34 Lycée Carnot, and 15 30 Octobre – Paul Cabet will shut down entirely from late morning on Friday, October 30, through Monday morning, November 2. Motorists should anticipate difficult access to center-city parking facilities throughout Saturday afternoon.
Customer Service Continuity During the Rallies
Despite the operational hurdles on the streets, administrative touchpoints maintain standard hours.
