The Stretto consortium of Keolis and SNCF Voyageurs has won a competitive tender to operate 2 tram-train lines and the Esbly-Crécy branch of Line P.  Both companies aim to deliver service that meets the highest quality standards, thanks to the combination of speed and flexibility offered by tram-trains.

Stretto blends the experience of Keolis, the world’s leading tram operator, with the public transport expertise of Transilien SNCF Voyageurs, the Paris region’s leading mobility operator, and the practical knowledge both companies have gained from operating tram-train lines in the region.

Transilien SNCF Voyageurs is the Paris region’s tram-train pioneer. Since 2006, it has operated T4, the region’s first tram-train service, launched on the former Coquetiers line linking Aulnay-sous-Bois with Bondy in Seine-Saint-Denis, north of the capital. The line now serves 9 more stations on the urban branch connecting Gargan and Clichy-Montfermeil, added in 2019.

Fast, clean and modern, the T11 Express line has been operated since 2017 by Transkeo, a joint venture between Keolis (51%) and SNCF Voyageurs (49%). With 7 stops and 11 kilometres of line, T11 links passengers to the entire Paris Region via connections with Lines B, C, D, H, et T8. Soon it will join metro lines 16 and 17 of the Grand Paris Express, giving it even more power to boost local development.
