Vinci said Thursday that it has been awarded the first
design-build contract as part of a larger consortium for a section
of the Grand Paris Express, a major transport project in the region
of Paris.
The contract, worth 2.71 billion euros ($3.02 billion), covers
the first section of Line 15 West, the French construction company
said.
The project entails the design and construction of 14 kilometers
of tunnels, five underground stations and 16 service buildings,
Vinci said.
It will link the western Parisian metro station Pont de Sevres
with the French capital's La Defense financial district.
The consortium includes several of Vinci's companies including
Vinci Construction and Vinci Energies.
The transport line is expected operational at the end of 2031,
Vinci said.
