Key facts

What we know as of Thursday, 5 November

Friday 6

Saturday 7
“Act IV”: marches announced across France; the organisers also mention blockades.
Paris
The organisers announce a rally at 14:00 on Place de la Concorde and say they will march even if it is banned. We have not yet found a decision by the police prefecture or a confirmed route. On 31 October, the route to Concorde was refused.
Unions
5 November was called by CFDT, CGT, FO, Unsa and FSU. 6 and 7 November are called by the Gilets jaunes coordination. According to AFP (2 November), apart from Solidaires, the unions are not talking about continuing the strike after Thursday.

Trains
SNCF announces TER disruption until Friday morning in some regions. Unrelated to the protests, RER B is cut between Aulnay-sous-Bois and Mitry-Claye on 7 and 8 November for engineering work.

Our advice

  • If you are driving on Friday or Saturday, fill up the day before and allow extra time.
  • Sites are not known in advance: plan an alternative route around roundabouts, ring roads and retail parks.
  • At a roadblock, turn back if you can do so safely; never force your way through.
  • On Saturday afternoon in Paris, avoid the Concorde area. Elsewhere, check your local prefecture’s orders.
