Question 16403 — transportation

Summary

Mr. Benjamin Saint-Huile draws the attention of the Minister Delegate to the Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, responsible for transport, to the cooperation between the SCNF and train and bicycle user associations. Bike-train intermodality is essential today, while the train represents the primary mode of travel for bike trips lasting more than three days. In November 2021, the Government defended the State's ambition to raise France to the world's leading destination for cycling tourism and sustainable tourism by 2030. To meet this objective, the “Velo Plan 2.0” notably planned to promote intermodality between public transport and cycling, with the creation of 200,000 additional secure parking spaces in stations. The bicycle tourism sector also welcomed the January decree 2021 relating to the carriage of undisassembled bicycles on board passenger trains. Today, however, the desired increase in cycle tourism seems to be thwarted by the operators' operating methods. Having to combine the purchase of tickets simultaneously with the use of several smartphone applications or by combining a station machine and a smartphone complicates the traveler's experience. While bike reservations are increasingly unavailable during major departures, contradicting the spirit of the mobility orientation law (LOM) which promotes the development of bicycle use, dialogue between the SNCF and bicycle-cyclist associations is increasingly difficult. In addition, as a consequence of the increase in traffic, a growing number of bicycle travelers are being turned away from TER trains. This flow management rightly arouses some anger among users and deters many. Faced with these various difficulties, it appears necessary to reestablish a dialogue between the SNCF and train and bicycle user associations. It would therefore be interesting to systematically integrate the associations into the route committees. This is why he wishes to question him on the measures that can be implemented to further facilitate intermodality. between the train and the bicycle, to continue to encourage the use of these virtuous modes of transport.
