THE 15-MINUTE CITY

OLD-FASHIONED COMPACT, CONVENIENT, MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT FOR A MODERN, POST PANDEMIC, WALKABLE WORLD

Carlos Moreno said connectivity to the suburbs (which are much more dense that those in America) will be boosted by Grand Paris Express,

a $25 billion expansion of the century-old Paris Métro to be completed in 2030, and the system will have gained four lines, 68 stations, and more than 120 miles of track.

Moreno noted that the lines will boost inclusion for people with disabilities, as all stations will be wheelchair-accessible (currently, only three percent of the historic metro is accessible.)
