Grand Paris Express

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The planned network of the Grand Paris Express

The Grand Paris Express is a network Template: future / in 5 yearsplanned for 2030 and consisting of six driverless underground lines in the greater Paris area . It will consist of the existing metro lines 11 and 14 to be extended and four new lines 15, 16, 17 and 18 to be created. The planned network is also known as supermétro automatique régional (regional automatic super subway). It will have a length of 200 kilometers and 72 stations and will be realized under the leadership of the Société du Grand Paris (SGP) and the Syndicat des transports d'Île-de-France (STIF) and the construction phase has started. The necessary financial volume is estimated at 28 to 35 billion euros. The construction of the Grand Paris Express will double the size of the Paris metro network , which at 220 kilometers is the fourth largest in Europe after London, Moscow and Madrid , and thus overtake the London Underground .

overview

Grand Paris Express is one of ten projects that want to develop this metropolitan area into a metropolitan area similar to Greater London as part of the Grand Paris project . On January 26, 2011, the Grand Paris Express was launched through an agreement between the regional government Conseil régional d'Île-de-France and the French state. Unlike the Métro Paris , the network is less likely to open up the city than the surrounding area, i.e. parts of the Île-de-France . Only four of the new metro stations to be built are in the urban area of ​​Paris, and only one of the six routes will be extended within Paris.

In 75% of all stations on lines 14 to 18, there will be a transfer option to another high-quality local means of transport in the region ( Métro , Transilien , RER , tram or busway line with its own lanes). Three quarters of the new lines will run in the tunnel: Tunnels 10 meters in diameter will accommodate two tracks and will run at an average depth of 30 meters.

In addition to these projects of the Grand Paris Express, the metro operator RATP will expand its line 4 by two stations to the south to Bagneux and line 12 by two stations to the north to Mairie d'Aubervilliers, so that two further connections with line 15 arise.

The planned routes

Line 11

The line 11 of the Paris Metro is extended in an easterly direction in two stages. First of all, the Mairie des Lilas - Rosny-Bois-Perrier extension is to be built by 2019, followed by the 10-kilometer section from Rosny-Bois-Perrier to Noisy-Champs in a second construction phase by 2025. It is likely that the line will not initially be converted to driverless operation.

Line 14

The existing driverless line 14 of the Paris Métro is intended as a north-south diameter line will be integrated into the system. It will be extended in the north to Saint-Denis Pleyel , where a junction of the Grand Paris Express system will be created, linking lines 14, 15, 16 and 17. In the south, an extension to Orly Airport is planned, serving the following cities: Le Kremlin-Bicêtre , Villejuif , Chevilly-Larue , Rungis and Paray-Vieille-Poste .

The extension to the north from Saint Lazare via Pont Cardinet, Porte de Clichy and Clichy - Saint-Ouen to Mairie de Saint-Ouen is due to open in summer 2020. The extension route is currently being integrated into the line's fully automatic driverless system with test drives.

The drilling for the following construction phase to Saint-Denis Pleyel and the junction to a depot will be carried out using two tunnel boring machines . Commissioning is targeted for the year 2023.

The further scheduling provides for the following:

  • until 2023: Extension to the south: Olympiades - Villejuif-Gustave Roussy
  • by 2025: Extension to the south: Villejuif-Gustave Roussy - Orly Airport

Lines 11 and 14 connect the four newly emerging suburban lines 15 to 18 to the Paris metro network.

Line 15

Line 15 will circumnavigate Paris outside the city limits

The line 15 of the Paris Métro is a future, completely underground extending annular line that Paris will circle outside the city limits. The closest approach takes place in the area of ​​the La Défense train station . The completion of the 75 km long route with 36 stations and 19 municipalities is planned for 2030. The cycle in rush hour should be 2 minutes thanks to fully automatic operation. For planning and construction, the entire route is divided into three sections:

Ligne 15 sud

This 33 km long section, which has entered the implementation phase, will connect the Noisy-Champs station in the Seine-et-Marne department with the western terminus of line 9 , namely Pont de Sèvres . There are 16 stations on this section. More than a million people live in the catchment area of ​​the route, spread over 22 communities.

After the expected commissioning in 2022, up to 300,000 passengers are expected every day. The civil engineering work is expected around mid-2016 [date] the construction of the station Fort d'Issy - start Clamart - Vanves. The section was divided into several tenders so that five tunnel boring machines can work there at the same time.

Southern section of line 15: you can change to other rail transport at almost all stations

Line 15 ouest

This 20-kilometer section connects eleven stations. It starts in the south with the Pont de Sèvres train station and ends in the north with the Saint-Denis Pleyel train station. A journey takes about 24 minutes. The route is to be put into operation in sections: Pont-de-Sèvres ↔ Nanterre in 2025 and Nanterre ↔ Saint-Denis Pleyel in 2027.

Ligne 15 est

Trains will serve twelve communities on this section in 26-minute journeys with the help of twelve stations.

Commissioning is also planned in partial sections: Saint-Denis Pleyel ↔ Rosny-Bois Perrier in 2025 and Rosny-Bois Perrier ↔ Champigny Center in 2030. One of the most important nodes here will be the Val de Fontenay train station with connections to two ( existing) RER lines RER A and RER E , to tram T1 and Métrolinie 1 , which are to be extended to this station by 2017 and 2025 respectively.

Vehicle fleet

Trains on steel wheels are to be used. The maximum length of the trains will be 120 meters, which gives them a capacity of 1000 people per train with a car body width of 2.8 m (comparable to the dimensions of the RER trains). The route capacity is set at 34,560 passengers per hour during the morning rush hour. The maximum speed is 120 km / h, from which a cruising speed of 55–60 km / h can be derived, so that a trip around Paris will take around 80 minutes. The energy will be supplied via an overhead line, at the same time the kinetic energy released during braking should be stored or fed back into the network. During rush hour, the trains should run every 2 minutes.

Line 16

The distance

The line 16 of the Paris Métro links in a wide arc to the north of Paris (link to the end of the line 14) to the east. It is supposed to connect Saint-Denis Pleyel with Noisy-Champs . Intermediate stops will be Le Bourget-RER, Aulnay-sous-Bois , Clichy-Montfermeil and Chelles . The line will be around 25 kilometers long and will share the 5.5 km section Saint-Denis Pleyel - Le Bourget with line 17. It is intended that the east of the Seine-Saint-Denis département will be better developed in terms of transport. The line also crosses all radial routes from Paris to the Seine-et-Marne department : the RER routes A , B and E , as well as various routes on the Transilien .

Vehicle fleet

Trains similar to those on line 15 will be used: on steel wheels and with energy recovery, car body width approx. 2.8 m. 54 m long trains with a capacity of 500 passengers per train are formed from three cars each. The maximum speed of the trains will be 120 km / h and an average cruising speed of 65 km / h is expected.

In the morning rush hour , a train sequence at intervals of 3 to 4 minutes would be possible. The line is scheduled to go into operation in 2023.

Line 17

route

The line 17 of the Paris Métro has the 5.5-km section of Saint-Denis Pleyel - Le Bourget RER together with the line 16th The line then serves Le Bourget Airport , the Gonesse business park Le Triangle , the Parc des expositions de Paris-Nord Villepinte exhibition center , and terminals T2 and T4 at Charles de Gaulle Airport . The final stop is Le Mesnil-Amelot . The route will be 27 kilometers long.

There are 9 stations on the route, five of which offer transfer options to the RER network or to other lines of the Grand Paris Express.

Line 17 connects the municipalities of Le Bourget , Gonesse and Roissy with the metropolitan area around Saint-Denis, the so-called Plaine Saint-Denis. The route is essentially guided in a tunnel, with the exception of the section between Triangle de Gonesse and the entrance to the tunnel under Charles de Gaulle Airport.

Planned completion dates for the individual sections:

  • 2023 Saint-Denis Pleyel ↔ Le Bourget RER
  • 2025: Le Bourget RER ↔ Triangle de Gonesse
  • 2027: Triangle de Gonesse ↔ Aéroport Charles de Gaulle (T4)
  • 2030: Aéroport Charles de Gaulle (T4) ↔ Le Mesnil-Amelot

Vehicle fleet

Since line 17 shares a common section with line 16, the same vehicles will be used on both lines.

Line 18

The Line 18 of the Paris Métro is widely run in front of the city in the southwest of Paris. When completed, it will create a 50-kilometer connection from Nanterre via Versailles to Orly Airport . Since a weaker volume of traffic is expected than on the other lines, a railway will probably be built according to the VAL or Neoval principle .

Time schedule:

  • CEA Saint-Aubin - Massy section: 2023
  • Massy - Orly Airport section: 2027
  • CEA Saint-Aubin - Versailles Chantiers section: 2030
