TBM Ellen at work for the Grand Paris Express
The TBM Ellen began its drive, from the Parc Robespierre shaft, in Bagneux, towards Fort d’Issy-Vanves-Clamart (by Paris), in mid-February 2018, as part of the works on section T3C of Line 15 South of the Grand Paris Express.
These works are being undertaken by VINCI Construction (VINCI Construction Grands Projets, leader, VINCI Construction France, Dodin Campenon Bernard and Botte Fondations) and Spie Batignolles. The second TBM will be starting its drive in early April 2019, starting from the Arcueil-Cachan station and heading for Villejuif Louis Aragon.
