A better sharing of the roads

The implementation of the extension of Tram 1 will contribute to a better sharing of the roads as well as to the calming of traffic, in an area where traffic is particularly dense.

The extension of Tram 1 will improve the public transport service in the cities of Rueil-Malmaison and Nanterre and will be a real alternative to the private car. By giving them more space, the project will also promote active modes of transportation such as walking and cycling.

The extension of Tram 1 will include the creation of a continuous cycle route along the route, which will complement the sector's cycle network.

A renovation of public spaces

Improving the accessibility of the districts crossed will boost the attractiveness of the territories. The project will also have a positive effect on the landscape. Indeed, the stations, the street furniture, and the requalification of the roads used by thetramwaywill go in the direction ofimproving the living environment.
