(France )PARIS-T5

Paris-T5
The new tram-on-tyre line T5 (Saint Denis-Sarcelles, under construction) is going to serve some popular banlieu trying to revitalize strategical urban areas. Many interesting modal interchange points will be located along the track: Marche de Saint-Denis (T1 tramway line), Saint-Denis Basilique (metro Line 13), Garges-Sarcelles (RER local railways Line D), besides many other bus interchange stops.
A further standard (steel wheels) tram line named T8 (Saint Denis-Epinay/Villetaneuse) will also serve Seine-Saint-Denis department, connecting Saint-Denis, Epinay-sur-Seine, Villetaneuse and serving Universitè de Paris XIII-Villetaneuse. It will interchange with metro L13 (Saint-Denis Porte de Paris stop) and tram T1 (Gare de Saint-Denis stop), but not directly with the future T5 line.
