Safety distances on board

Another government recommendation: respect the safety distances inside vehicles. At Divia, the choice was made to rely on the common sense of the users. No seat condemned as the idea had been put forward, however a lot of prevention on the ground: “All of Divia’s teams _support and guide clients on this measure_, there will be voice messages of awareness, on buses, on trams and at stations. The measure must be explained and as far as possible guaranteed that it will be observed. “

For Thomas Fontaine, the transport offer should be sufficient, at least initially, to ensure physical distance: “70% of the offer, compared to frequentation which will resume very gradually, this will guarantee that people are not too promiscuous on the quays and in vehicles, and therefore guarantee this distance”.

Still no direct ticket sales

At station level and inside buses and trams, priority will be left to payment by card, contactless. The return of sale on board, “in currency”, is not considered at this stage.

Hygiene on board buses and trams

According to Keolis Dijon, this is one of the fundamental points of de-containment. “There will be one logic of excellence on cleanliness and hygiene “, confirms Thomas Fontaine. “We reinforce the daily cleaning on all the walls of the contact areas, we also set up additional cleaning during the day directly on trams and buses “.

The bicycle, complement to a logic of global offer

In the coming weeks, cycling will also have a role to play in the overall transport offer in Dijon. With a boost from Divia’s services on its two rental offers: “we left on a plane to be able to make more bikes available. This is the case for self-service bikes, _Divia Vélodi_, with a special offer to be implemented within two weeks, and then for Divia Bikes in long-term rental, to complement the travel offer of travelers to the metropolitan area of ​​Dijon. ”

Soon return of paid parking but not now

The paid parking will come back yes but not next week. It will be progressive. “What is certain is that we will be careful to ensure that the vehicle turnover rate is again ensured, that is to say that when you come to the city center, you can have the availability of parking spaces. “
