Victory for Algeria: the private Guillotière of public transport in Lyon – Lyon Mag

The Algerians of Lyon are celebrating this Saturday evening. Their national team have just won the Arab Cup against Tunisia.

So hundreds of people took to the streets to celebrate the event. From 6:45 p.m., the crowd converged on the Guillotière district.

This is why, faced with the jets of firecrackers and smoke and the risk of overflows, the TCL decided to interrupt the service of the metro D at the station “Guillotière Gabriel-Péri”. The tram station is also inoperative. Some bus lines are also disrupted.

Serious traffic jams have formed on the banks of the Rhône, with a concert of horns and urban rodeos between stationary vehicles.
