An hour and a half to do Thionville-Terville!

For several days, the mayor of Terville, Olivier Postal, has been assailed by phone calls and letters. A good part of his constituents are angry, angry with the Smitu, and they let him know it.

“I will share with you my son’s experience following the changes on the Citéline networks,” says for example a mother of a family, whose boy is educated at La Milliaire college in Thionville. My son left college at 3:50 pm today and went to the route de Guentrange stop to take the 51 bus at 4:01 pm. The bus did not stop. He therefore had to go to Chaussée d’Afrique to take bus 23 which was due to arrive at 4:15 pm. This bus arrived at 4:20 p.m. As a result, the connection at Hélène-Boucher (bus 21) which goes through Terville had already left… He had to wait until 4:50 pm to get a bus. He finally got off at the Eglise de Terville stop to arrive at our home around 5:30 p.m. Do you find normal a journey time of 1h30 to Thionville-Terville? If my son had made the trip on foot, he would certainly have arrived earlier… Before, when he took the H74 in front of the college around 4pm, he was home around 4:20 pm! How is it possible to get there? “

“Parents are worried”

To this question, the mayor of Terville would like an answer. But he doesn’t. And it is not for lack of having sent letters to the management of Smitu. On August 27, already, he asked the president of the Syndicat Mixte des Transports Urbains Thionville Fensch why line H74 had been removed: “The line which replaces it now requires a change at the Thionville bus station. However, the H74 line was used by many college students from Terville enrolled in La Milliaire. Parents are rightly worried about this new, very insecure route for young children… ”
