Eiffage Route on the Greater Avignon tramway

The Greater Avignon Urban Community has entrusted Eiffage Route with the construction of the infrastructure for its first tramway line.

After 25 months of work, Eiffage Route teams successfully completed the construction of the 2.5 km of Greater Avignon tramway line, including:

  • General VRD works (roads, structures, dry and wet networks)
  • the development of the foot of the Avignon ramparts - a UNESCO classified monument
  • the crossing of the Saint-Ruf and Tarascon districts

Eiffage Rouge Méditerranée - Etablissement Alpes - Vaucluse, leader of the S.C.V. / SOLS / ERM consortium, was in charge of the general VRD works (roads, structures, dry and wet networks).

This €14.6 million project involved more than a hundred employees. 9,000 hours of insertion were carried out there.

After the start of the technical tests in June, commissioning is scheduled for October 2019.
