Examples of semi-automated
lines across the world
In addition to its ability to operate fully automated, very high capacity lines (a rele-
vant solution for very heavy traffic services such as Lines 1, 4 and 14 on the Paris
network), RATP Group has developed unparalleled expertise in driving automation
for large-scale projects such as the deployment of the OCTYS driving system on
several lines on the Paris metro network. Lines 3, 5 and 13 have been modernised
accordingly and lines 6, 9 and 11 are currently being equipped. The system shortens
the interval between trains with complete safety.

GRAND PARIS EXPRESS:
A MAJOR STAKE FOR RATP GROUP
The completely automated and extended lines 4 and 14 will
form the backbone of tomorrow’s automated metro network
for the Paris region. With its 70 years’ experience in automating
metro systems, RATP Group is strongly committed to taking part
in bids for the future lines 15,16, 17 and 18.
