The project consists of an investment programme aiming at minimising the environmental impact of APRR’s (Autoroutes Paris-Rhin-Rhône) toll motorways, located on the TEN-T network. Investments will primarily include a variety of safety and environmental improvement measures (e.g. water treatment, noise reduction, traffic management), bringing the network up to current safety & environmental standards, and to a lesser extent the widening of key bottlenecks with a view to enhance traffic fluidity.
The APRR network links Paris to Lyon in France and is located at the crossroads of Benelux, Germany, France, Switzerland and Italy. The majority of the benefits of the project are expected to be realised as a result of improvements in road safety, environment, security for heavy goods vehicles and traffic management. In addition, the planned investments are located on aTEN-T.
