They come from Göteborg, Eskilstuna, Ostrava, Guimarães, Viseu, Coimbra, and many other European cities. Just as our overseas colleagues from Reunion Island and Mayotte were first on hand to transport spectators to the Versailles site, it's now the turn of our drivers from the Czech Republic, Sweden and Portugal to provide invaluable support for our transport mission during this second stage of the major summer 2024 event.
These drivers, from Sweden, the Czech Republic and Portugal, have answered Transdev 2024’s call to contribute to a mission that goes beyond transport. It’s a real human adventure, a melting pot of cultures and experiences, which is unfolding before our very eyes. Our drivers are delighted by this diversity, which enriches their experience and strengthens their sense of pride in belonging to a company capable of mobilizing talent on a European scale.
I wanted to come and live this adventure in Paris, in what is for me the most beautiful city in the world. I speak French, which made it easier for me to come. Fortunately, we have the technical means to orientate ourselves on our routes and there are dedicated lanes, because my only apprehension before arriving here concerned Parisian road traffic. In the end, everything went smoothly!

The Transdev Group relied on its European subsidiaries to successfully mobilize 1,200 drivers. Thanks to this international mobilization, we have built links between our subsidiaries and created a unique experience for our drivers, who leave with unforgettable memories and the satisfaction of having contributed to the success of an exceptional event.
At Transdev, we are proud to have created a real bridge between countries to ensure the transport mission of this historic Parisian event. This rich human adventure is a testament not only to our commitment to providing excellent transport services, but also to our desire as an employer to offer our drivers enriching experiences within our international group. By offering them the opportunity to take part in missions outside their usual region, we enable them to discover the magic of this event, while enriching their professional and personal careers.
