Project
The project consists of the creation of three tram-train lines departing from Lyon Saint-Paul to Sain-Bel, Brignais and Lozanne, with the aim to improve the traffic between these railway stations.
Some rail lines have been doubled, platforms rebuilt, and stations modernised. The total cost of the project is around €150·2m.
While the lines to Sain-Bel and Brignais were opened in 2012, the third line to Lozanne is still planned but postponed. Currently, classic TER trains runs from Lozanne station to Tassin station, connecting with the tram-train line from Lyon Saint-Paul to Sain-Bel.
