On Saturday December 9, 2023, the T12 tram-train enters into service. Built under the joint management of Île-de-France Mobilités and SNCF, the T12 tram-train is a concrete expression of the national and regional commitment to reinforcing the public transport network in the Île-de-France region.
Inauguration of the T12 between Massy and Evry-Courcouronnes
Being a major project linking two major Essonne hubs, Massy and Évry-Courcouronnes, it offers an alternative to the private car and facilitates connections between different modes of transport (RER B, C and D, several bus lines and, in time, the Tzen 4 and metro 18). It also stimulates the region's economic and urban development.
Running both on the national rail network (between Massy and Épinay-sur-Orge) and on tramway tracks in urban areas (between Épinay-sur-Orge and Évry-Courcouronnes), the T12 combines the advantages of rail and tramway. Passengers and residents of the 12 towns it serves benefit from a mode of transport that combines comfort and performance.
With 16 stations serving 12 Essonne communes, the T12 is a new link in the public transport network. By strengthening local services, it offers an efficient alternative to the car and supports the urban transformation of the region.
