In terms of transportation, public space design will prioritize pedestrian and soft modes of transport, rerouting bus systems in favor of metro stations. The final phases are planned for 2030, when Line 17 will continue to Le Mesnil-Amelot near Charles de Gaulle Airport, and Line 18 will reach Versailles-Chantiers. The project is expected to be completed in 2031, completing the 75-kilometer circular metro line.
