Question 17186 — rail transport

Summary

Mrs. Marietta Karamanli draws the attention of the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, to the situation of the Le Mans-Alençon railway line. Indeed, its current state due to corrosion of the sleepers supporting the track has led since 2017 to decide on slowdown zones increasing journeys and reducing the possible rotation of equipment. As it stands, none of the work planned has, to his knowledge, started. Local authorities which have invested to improve access and parking lots share users' fears of a reduction in traffic. At the same time, a project for a railway stop near the Le Mans hospital center (and a few tram stations from the university), located along the Le Mans-Alençon line, is being studied. A proposal was formulated in 1998 and a project had been studied since 2012. The cost of such a stopover with corresponding services (4 per day) by 2023 is, as it stands, estimated at 9.6 million euros (91% borne by local authorities). This system would allow the station to be relieved of congestion by users having the possibility of getting off there and taking the tram serving the city at the same place, thus limiting the use of individual vehicles and improving transport times for everyone. Regarding the work, she asks him what the timetable is and what programmed and financed improvements are already planned and will be undertaken in the short term on the Le Mans-Alençon line. Concerning the stopover, she also asked what effort could be made by the State to support the completion of this stopover on time and in its financing.
