FranceDuring the heatwave in July 2026, the RATP reported a 15% drop in metro and RER usage in Île-de-France due to reduced passenger activity. In response, the RATP established a 'forecasting cell' to prepare for future heatwaves, led by CEO Xavier Piechaczyk. This team works daily to develop contingency plans based on temperature intensity and duration. The new system includes real-time rail temperature monitoring via connected sensors, speed reductions on metros when temperatures reach 57°C, and the gradual rollout of refrigerated ventilation systems across trains and buses. While current measures provide some relief, full implementation of these cooling technologies is expected by 2034.
