In addition to launching the CDG Express, the region's transport authorities are working on building an underground pedestrian tunnel between the Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est, which are located about 500 meters apart and are used by about 800 passengers every day.
Completion of the work is scheduled for spring 2027, simultaneously with the launch of the new express.
The city also continues to develop the metro: new line No. 17 will connect Saint-Denis with the district Mesnil-Amlo via Charles de Gaulle Airport. The first section is planned to open in mid-2027, with the entire line to be operational by 2030.
All of these projects are expected to significantly improve transport connections between the airport and the French capital.
