The public transport authority of Paris, RATP, has chosen Veolia, headquartered in Paris, to dismantle and recycle 317 passenger cars used by the city’s Réseau Express Régional (RER) express commuter rail service for its A-line route.
According to Veolia, dismantling the railcars will enable 97 percent of the materials in the passenger cars, each measuring 25 meters long and weighing more than 30 metric tons, to be recycled and recovered. It is also said to be the first such project of this size undertaken in France, according to Veolia.
