In 2024, Paris will ban non-essential vehicle thru-traffic from its city center. The plan is expected to cut around half of daily car journeys thru the core. Residents, public transit, emergency vehicles, & people with disabilities will find it EASIER to move. Via @citylab

@Thalass @BrentToderian temper expectations ;) - is my best tip.
And don't use a backpack, as tourists... Certainly not on public transport. Even though the metro is the best way to get around the centre, it's also the best place to get robbed, as a tourist.
Ooh and go in 3 yrs, rather than 2.
In 2 years, prices will be exorbitantly high (olympics), go after the Olympics...
Ah good point! I guess I don't pay enough attention to the olympics 😅
@Thalass don't worry me neither. Its a huge annoyance already ( lots of works going on). And we re already anticipating not being able to work in Paris during 2 months.
Pritty sure every single parisian will already run away end of June from Paris.
I insure you every single Parisian hates Olympics being there ( well they hate most things :p) and already now, wish it was over🤪
