Utilisation of infrastructures

Advantages Ground available in the heart of Paris Good connection with the rail network

Drawbacks Limited number of junction sites

In great demand from promoters and town-planners Complex split of land (SNCF/RFF)

The way sites are cut up Development and upgrading work now indispensable

Cost, time lines Integrating activity with the environment

Immediate neighbourhood (pollution, noise…) Rail work sites

Technical drawbacks: Limited range and power Higher purchase and operating costs

Environmental gains Greatly reduced emissions of pollutants:

410 t fewer CO2 emissions = - 47% Harmful particles = - 52% Volatile organic compounds = - 44% NOx = - 56%

700 000 km reduced per year

250 rail shuttles substitute 10 000 trucks per year
