The development of ambitious sustainable mobility and development projects is crucial for the French economy and society to meet the challenges of the ecological and energy transition. This model is the driving force behind the Grand Paris Express and will ensure its successful completion.
Paris’s four new suburban metro lines will make travel easier for nearly 3 million people. As a viable alternative for commuting in cars, the metro is also an opportunity to take a second look at modes of transport around the stations, and to prioritise cycling and walking. It’s also a chance to introduce property development projects with low carbon emissions that demand less local energy.
Twenty years after it is commissioned, the Grand Paris Express will save at least 14.2 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent in 2050.
In the meantime, work progresses on all the lines. Watch the video.
