Has a tramway in its place been considered?

This alternative has been studied.

Consideration should be given to the needs for this mode:

• A tramway runs mainly on its own lane (on dedicated lanes) and would require a road width of about 26 m to maintain the other functions of the street (sidewalks, traffic, parking, planting, cycle path provided for by law).
• A tramway is not well suited to steep slopes: without constraint up to 6%, it requires adaptations between 6 and 8%, and beyond 8 to 10% the insertion of accessible stations and switches becomes difficult.

The study did not identify any continuous route compatible with the topography of the territory (slopes greater than 10%) linking Château de Vincennes to Val de Fontenay by serving the Rigollots and the Grands Pêchers, under the operating conditions sought for a conventional tramway.
