Cergy-Pontoise Confluence is a French bus network run by Île-de-France Mobilités, operated by Compagnie française des transports régionaux (CFTR) via his subsidiary Francilité Seine et Oise from January 1, 2024. The network was created thanks of a merging of SAVAC and Cars Lacroix.
It consists of 32 lines which mainly serve the Communauté d'agglomération de Cergy-Pontoise in the Val-d'Oise, as well of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine and Achères in the Yvelines.
History
STIVO network
Cergy-Pontoise Confluence network
Opening to the competition
Due to the opening up of public transport to competition in Île-de-France, the Cergy-Pontoise Confluence bus network will be created on January 1, 2024, corresponding to public service delegation number 2 established by Île-de-France Mobilités. An invitation to tender was therefore opened by the organizing authority in order to designate a company which will operate the network for a period of six years. It is finally the group Compagnie française des transports régionaux (CFTR) via his society Francilité Seine et Oise, who was designated during the board of directors on June 28, 2023.[1]
At the date of its opening to competition, the network consisted of the lines 29, 30, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48A, 48B, 48C, 49, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59 and 60 of the STIVO and of lines 4, 5, 5S, 11, 14, 17A, 17B, A1 and A2 of Transdev Conflans.
Network renaming
Since September 2, 2024, the Cergy-Pontoise Confluence network has been applying the new principle of single regional numbering planned by Île-de-France Mobilités, in order to remove duplicated lines.[2] The correspondence between old and new numbers is as follows:[2]

2024–25 strikes
In 2024, a strike notice was filed for the period from October 23, 2024, to May 31, 2025.[3]
This general strike was organized by the drivers of the Cergy-Pontoise Confluence bus network since 11 July 2024[4] impacting the entire Cergy-Pontoise urban area as well as neighboring towns. The strikers are reportedly demanding better working conditions, which have deteriorated[5] since the end of the takeover of the STIVO by the new manager[6][7]
Since mid-December 2024, traffic will gradually resume on lines 1201 1202 1227 .[8] However, in February, traffic still had not resumed normally, with numerous delays and cancelled buses.
In February 2025, a reimbursement campaign is announced by Île-de-France Mobilités[9] for users with a monthly subscription Navigo, Imagine'R.[10] The amount of this reimbursement would be €261.60[11][9] and will be made available to users on the IDFM website from February 27, 2025.
