The circulation of TER trains was disrupted this Friday, March 29 in the morning, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region due to strong gusts of wind, announced the SNCF.
Several incidents have been recorded on the Rhône, Loire and Isère lines. For example, traffic was interrupted in the Lyon-Grenoble direction because of a floating tarpaulin reported on the electrical installations near Saint-Priest. The return to normal took place mid-morning.
Same problem in the Loire between Saint-Etienne and Rive-de-Gier. A tarpaulin was reported on the installations towards Saint-Chamond and traffic was interrupted on this axis.
Interrupted due to a tree falling on the tracks, rail traffic has been disrupted between Grenoble and Chambéry for 8 hours. A “reprise progressive” is planned “the best” from 12:30 p.m. But train traffic on this busy route remains slow this morning.
