This project will require the construction of two major bridges, one to cross the ring road and a second across the river Cher, which is not part of the consortium’s brief. Parts of the line in the centre of the city and in protected areas along the banks of the Loire will be powered without an overhead catenary.
SYSTRA, as led-consortium, manages the project.
