ABOUT THIS PROJECT
Paris Métro Line 14 is a fully automated rapid-transit line designed to move passengers efficiently through busy parts of the capital and its suburbs. Since its initial opening in 1998, it has become a major north–south connection, with extensions opened in 2024 toward Saint-Denis Pleyel and Orly Airport. RATP’s project documentation describes the extended corridor and its new stations. The line illustrates the value of combining automated train operations with large interchanges and high-capacity station design. Images should document the modern trains, platform screen doors, station architecture and passenger experience, not simply generic Paris landmarks.
SMART TECHNOLOGIES
Fully automated metro operation; platform screen doors; digital passenger information; integrated interchange planning.
WHY IT MATTERS
Line 14 is an excellent example of automation supporting metropolitan connectivity. Its airport extension and new interchange stations show how modern signalling, capacity and station design can be deployed within an established city.
