Heatwave: towards increasingly air-conditioned transport

New, sustainable transport... and air-conditioned

Year after year, Île-de-France Mobilités continues to invest in renewing your transport. New or renovated trains, buses, trams and metros, designed to better respect the environment... and increase passenger comfort - climatic comfort in particular, thanks to the generalization of air conditioning systems.

Climate comfort on trains

Île-de-France Mobilités continues to invest heavily to buy new trains equipped with air conditioning systems. For the year 2022, this corresponds to the deployment of 685 new or renovated trains, all equipped with refrigerated ventilation.

As a result, today 73% of trains in the Ile-de-France region are equipped with air conditioning systems. By 2025, we will reach 90%.

By 2035, all metro trains will have been replaced by Île-de-France Mobilités and will be air-conditioned.

In the meantime, the renewal of equipment continues, with 36% of metros already equipped with air conditioning systems.

These are the trains that run on lines 1, 2, 5, 9, as well as part of those on line 14 thanks to the ongoing deployment of the MP14, a new rubber-tyred metro that will soon also equip lines 4 and 11.

From 2024, the first trains of the brand new MF19 "rail" metro will gradually arrive on lines 3, 3bis, 7, 7bis, 8, 10, 12 and 13.

A gradual replacement of the old models by this new train, a real "metro of the future" bright, comfortable and naturally... air-conditioned!

Tram: all air-conditioned!

All tram lines are air-conditioned. With the exception of line 1, but the total renewal of its trains is planned for 2024.

Bus and bus: always fresher

Today, 53% of the Île-de-France fleet of buses and coaches has air conditioning, which represents a fleet of 4,200 vehicles out of 10,500. This percentage is set to change with the massive renewal of equipment undertaken by Île-de-France Mobilités.

High temperatures: the right reflexes to adopt in transport

2. Shade. Are you waiting for the bus or tram? Stay in the shade (or bring a hat, an umbrella)

3. Air-conditioned vehicle? Keep the cool inside, don't open the windows
