Vinci- Spie batignolles consortium won a EUR 926 million contract on Line 15 South of the future Grand Paris Express.
The consortium will construct T3C section of Line 15 South between the Fort d’Issy-Vanves-Clamart and Villejuif Louis Aragon stations. The contract covers tunnel with a length of more than 8 km by means of two 10 metre diameter earth pressure balanced tunnel boring machines. It also includes construction of five new stations (Châtillon Montrouge, Bagneux, Arcueil-Cachan, Villejuif Institut Gustave Roussy and Villejuif Louis Aragon) and eight shafts. The Villejuif Gustave-Roussy station will connect Line 15 South and Line 14 South. The project will take 70 months to complete.
“We are very proud to have won this major contract with our partner. The Grand Paris Express project is strategically important for the future and the economic development of the Greater Paris area. It will create jobs, open up regions and release energies. The Group will bring its expertise to this ambitious undertaking over the next 20 years. The project is a huge technical and also human challenge,” Vinci CEO Xavier Huillard said.
