The Transport Politic reports on a proposal to build the world’s longest automated rapid-transit line outside Paris. The plan would improve suburb-to-suburb commuting.
The French, who for years have failed to invest in the infrastructure of the Parisian suburbs, are finally making a big commitment rivaling any transit project in the world. For hundreds of thousands of people throughout the region, this plan will dramatically improve commutes.
The proposed line would be 130 km long and include 60 stations. According to Christian Blanc, France’s minister of Development in the Capital Region, the project could be completed by 2020. Link to full story at The Transport Politic.
