7,000 tonne slab successfully slid into place

17 August 2017 - Projects update and handover - France

At the worksite for the future Fort d’Issy-Vanves-Clamart station of the Grand Paris Express line, the Horizon consortium – Bouygues Travaux Publics and Soletanche Bachy (VINCI Construction) – successfully slid the structure’s covering slab into its final position during the weekend of 15 August 2017.

Weighing 7,000 t and 80 m in length, this slab had been prefabricated on site since March: it now forms the roof of the station.

Horizon is currently engaged in excavation works for the future underground station for metro line 15 (Noisy-le-Grand / Pont-de-Sèvres).

Located where the communes of Issy-les-Moulineaux, Clamart, Vanves and Malakoff (Hauts-de-Seine) intersect, it will serve as an interchange station between Line N of the Transilien and the future Line 15 of the Grand Paris Express.
