All the rails of the extension of the Paris metro line 14 who will serve theParis Orly airport are installed, and its opening to users is always planned for June 2024so in time for the Olympic Games (JO).
“The line 14 track is now fully completed from Saint-Denis Pleyel to Orly Airport. The deployment of the other rail infrastructure necessary for the circulation of trains, including the automatic pilot system, will be completed in the first half of 2023“, announced this week the RATP. And to add:Line 14 will be the first of the Grand Paris Express to be extended and put into service for the 2024 Olympics“.
The extension of line 14 to Paris-Orly airport is a continuation of the various extensions that have taken place since the line was inaugurated in 1998, the latest being the one linking Saint-Lazare to Mairie de Saint Ouen.
The Aéroport d’Orly station served by line 14 will allow users to go directly to the terminal with a single metro ticket or with their Navigo subscription, instead of the RER B via the Orlyval shuttle which requires a ticket at a high (14.10 euros from Paris, 11 euros for a Navigo card holder on January 1, 2023).
