The M4 southern extension is part of efforts to improve public transport services in the inner suburbs of the Greater Paris region.
Useful information:
- Département 92
- Connection with the future M15
Advantages
- Trains will run every 1 minute and 45 seconds, during peak hours.
- Easier, direct access to Paris from the cities of Montrouge and Bagneux.
- Easier connections with all RER lines, tramway T3a and virtually all of the metro lines. Ultimately, the M4 will connect with the future M15 of the Grand Paris Express, at the Bagneux station.
- The extension will also provide improved accessibility for persons with reduced mobility (escalators and elevators).
