The consortium will also build six new stations, which comprise Bobigny – Pablo Picasso, Pont de Bondy, Bondy, Rosny Bois-Perrier, Val de Fontenay, and Nogent – Le Perreux.

The companies will oversee the construction of a section of the Champigny Centre station allocated to line 15, along with establishing an operations centre in Rosny-sous-Bois and two property development projects in Bondy and Le Perreux.

The team aims to minimise the operation’s carbon effect by using low-carbon concrete and installing fibre-reinforced concrete segments.

Eiffage Construction, Eiffage Énergie Systèmes, and Eiffage Rail will bring their respective expertise to the project.

Work phases are set to start after a 15-month design phase and are planned to be completed in 2031.
