How to Plan an Accessible RER Trip From Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand to Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame
An accessible RER trip from Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand to Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame is possible only when the stations and equipment on your exact route are working for your needs. RATP says much of RER A and RER B is wheelchair-accessible, but accessibility still varies by station. Check the official accessibility information immediately before travel.
Check the whole journey, not one station
- Confirm your starting station access.
- Confirm the destination station access.
- Check whether lifts are currently available.
- Look at the platform-to-train boarding arrangement.
- Keep an alternative bus, tram or accessible station in mind.
Why live checking matters
A station that is normally accessible can become difficult if a lift is out of service. Construction and temporary platform changes can also affect the route.
Give yourself extra time
For Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand to Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame, do not plan a tight connection immediately after the RER. A little extra time makes it easier to change route if an access point is unavailable.
