Work on the contract involves the excavation of 11.1km of tunnel and the construction of stations at Aulnay, Sevran-Beaudottes, Sevran-Livry and Clichy Montfermeil, as well as related works.

Salini Impregilo will assign 20% of the value of the contract to local subcontractors and employ disadvantaged workers for 5% of the total number of hours estimated to be needed to complete the work.
