However, some players in the mobility sector are taking a more... mixed view of the event.

As a result, almost all our staff will be mobilised during the event: <strong>94% VTC drivers<\/strong> logically plan to be on the road during the Olympic fortnight. But at what cost? If the Uber study is anything to go by, some people are approaching the Olympics with the handbrake on, or at least with a degree of trepidation...<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In fact, the majority of VTC drivers working in the Paris region say they are <strong>concerned <\/strong>(64%), or <strong>anxious <\/strong>(56%), at the idea of working during the <strong>Paris 2024 Olympic Games<\/strong>. And with good reason... Already a problem on a daily basis, traffic in the capital could prove to be epic next summer. 93% of VTC drivers in the Paris region estimate that their journeys in and around Paris will be disrupted, or even very disrupted. \"<em>This is 17 points more than the disruption they anticipate for taxis.<\/em>\"notes the Uber study, which adds: \"<em>They also consider that the traffic rules put in place during the 2024 Olympic Games are unfavourable to them compared to taxi drivers (70%).<\/em>\".<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"493\" class=\"wp-image-156929\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/uber-paris-2024.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/uber-paris-2024.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/uber-paris-2024-300x211-derived.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/uber-paris-2024-100x70-derived.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption><em>Paris 2024: there are many reasons for concern among VTC drivers <br \/>according to the Uber study<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<aside class=\"wp-block-varenne-quote\">\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>It is incomprehensible that VTCs should be prevented from operating around Olympic sports venues.
