The Câble C1 urban cable car is set to shake up the south-east of Paris. Supported by Île-de-France Mobilités, this new cable link opens with an inauguration day and free free events. Residents will be able to try out the service in a convivial atmosphere.

What’s new for your commute

With Câble C1, your daily commute will run more smoothly. The line links Val-de-Marne communes such as Créteil, Limeil-Brévannes, Valenton and Villeneuve-Saint-Georges. You’ll be over the urban divide in just a few minutes. The cable car complements the metro, bus and RER for more direct connections.

You can access the service with a valid ticket. What’s more, boarding is step-free and at platform level. The glass cabins offer a clear view of the area, even on grey days. This ropeway facilitates connections from morning to evening and reduces detours.

Inauguration and free events

Opening day is all about festivities. Several stations will be lined with stands, mediation activities and fun trails. Agents will also be on hand to guide first-time passengers and families. The ropeway becomes an experience to be shared, between curiosity and usefulness.

“Simple, accessible air mobility for everyday journeys.”

You can ask questions about operation and safety. Educational workshops will explain the line and its local uses. As a result, everyone will leave with clear guidelines for their future journeys. Access to the free events will remain simple and user-friendly throughout the day.

Practical information for boarding

Traffic will follow extended timetables comparable to the rest of the network. This means you’ll benefit from useful connections at peak times. On-site staff will guide the flow of traffic around the stations. This ropeway will become an integral part of your daily routine.

  • Access with a valid ticket
  • Free entertainment on opening day
  • Itinerary and stations displayed on site
  • Organized priority and PRM access
  • Respect safety instructions and signs

Remember to plan your itinerary in advance. You’ll save time as soon as you arrive at the station. Orientation signs indicate connections and exits. Hosts are on hand to help families with any special needs they may have.

In the event of strong winds, the operator may adapt the frequency. However, passenger information will warn you in advance so you can adjust your route. The cabins remain comfortable and bright, summer and winter alike. The aerial tramway maintains a stable service when the road becomes overloaded.

Why cable transportation here?

The south-east of the Paris region is cut off by road and rail. An aerial tramway can pass over these obstacles without lengthening journeys. The aerial tramway reduces journey times without major ground works. This choice supports the reliability of local connections between neighborhoods.

Electric power limits noise and local emissions. In addition, the land area along the route remains contained. Residents gain mobility without losing useful public spaces. The ropeway is in line with Île-de-France Mobilités ‘ sustainable transport strategy.

Things to remember for your first crossing

Câble C1 connects neighborhoods that are difficult to reach today. What’s more, you get on with just a valid ticket. The opening event gives a foretaste of everyday use. The cable car will soon become a local reflex for short trips.

You’ll be able to get to grips with the system for the first time when you’re at a slower timetable. This way, you can test the connections without pressure or queuing. Our teams are on hand to reassure you and guide you every step of the way. This ropeway aims for simplicity, from platform to cabin, with no detours.

Stay tuned for announcements during the launch period. Then adapt your routes according to the times posted at the stations. Regular travelers will be quick to share their route tips. The cable car is now part of your daily mobility options.
