5 unusual facts about LGV Normandie


Grande Ceinture line

There are plans to build a TGV link between Normandy and l'aéroport de Roissy, using the LGV Normandie, the Grande Ceinture Nord until Stains, or a new interchange station onto the LGV Nord.

LGV Normandie

This "new" version of the LGV Normandie would begin in the Parisian suburb of Nanterre, on the regular Paris-Poissy line.

•

After Honfleur junction, the LGV would border the sea and a connection would serve Deauville.

•

The line would then follow the left bank of the river Seine until a triangle junction situated east of Honfleur; from here a line would cross the Seine between Normandy and Tancarville bridges, ending in a link which would enable service to Le Havre.

•

The line would then follow in large part the A14 and A13 motorways until Oissel, south of Rouen, where two links towards Rouen and perhaps a new station would be constructed.
