Summary
An iconic feature of the Paris skyline, metro line 6 is getting a makeover! The new metro trains on line 6, funded by Île-de-France Mobilités, are gradually being introduced. The first train entered service in mid-January 2023. All MP89 trains will be gradually rolled out until summer 2026: 32 of the 47 trains are already in commercial service on the line.
To prepare for the arrival of these new trains, a wide range of equipment and infrastructure has been modernized and upgraded: platforms, tracks, signaling systems, train control systems, new parking areas for the trains, as well as washing and maintenance facilities for the rolling stock. These major upgrades aim to ensure better service for all passengers.
In the long run, the rollout will also be supported by a new train maintenance center located beneath Place de la Nation. As a result, the introduction of these new trains will further enhance the reliability and regularity of service for the benefit of all travelers.
Ligne 6 du métro : un nouveau centre de dépannage des trains
Pour adapter au mieux ces matériels financés par Île-de-France Mobilités à la ligne 6, les trains MP89 ont été modernisés sur plusieurs plans :
- De six voitures, ils sont passés à cinq, dans le but d'adapter leur gabarit aux quais, plus petits, de la ligne 6 ;
- Ils ont été équipés de portes dites “mixtes” (qui s’ouvrent des deux côtés de la rame) pour s’adapter à certains arrêts, comme à Charles de Gaulle - Étoile ;
- Une vidéoprotection embarquée a été installée ;
- Les assises, les plafonds et la signalétique à bord ont été rénovés.
De son côté, la ligne 4 a accueilli de nouvelles navettes automatiques en 2023.
