Don't be dependent on traffic between La Gare du Nord and Orly
It takes at least 35 minutes to travel from Gare du Nord to Orly Airport by car in ideal traffic conditions. However, the time estimates on this route remain imprecise. For example, with a rush hour departure, the journey time can double!
What is this discrepancy due to? Traffic conditions have deteriorated sharply in recent years in the Paris region. The ring road but also the routes entering and leaving Paris are increasingly congested. During rush hours, cars and trucks piling up one after the other end up creating traffic jams. According to a study released by the V-Traffic agency in 2016, the average number of hours spent by an Ile-de-France resident in traffic jams each year is 90 hours.
The journey by public transport is 46 minutes via the RER B line, which according to the Citymapper application, is the second most disrupted line in the Ile-de-France network. It is also the line with the most abandoned luggage, which further modifies metro traffic.
