The company will conduct the project in partnership with Iris Conseil and the architecture and town-planning firm Urbanica. This 124 month contract will start in April, with the preliminary design studies. Commissioning of the extension will be realized in 2 phases. The first phase includes Les Courtilles-Quatre Routes tram section that will be completed in 2018, and, in second phase involves  Quatre Routes- Gabriel Péri section, that will be finished in 2023.
This project is in line with the objective fixed by the Master Plan for the Paris Region, to create a “Grand Tram circular line”. It will create direct links between adjoining neighbourhoods by connecting the public transport network to mainlines such as Métro Line 13, the Transilien suburban Line J and tramline T2.
