During the meeting of the steering committee of the Orly airport station, on 3 May 2016, the Grand Paris company announced that in order not to mortgage the future, protective measures will be taken at the station
Orly airport to create a possible extension of the
Paris Métro Line 18 to the east of the line beyond 2030. This measure is taken after requests from local elected officials of
Val-de-Marne and
Essonne to connect Villeneuve-Saint-Georges station, located on RER
Line D, to the
Orly airport area to facilitate its access. Other elected officials want the extension to go to
Boissy-Saint-Léger station, located on RER
Line A, to the same reasons. Finally, the department of Val-de-Marne via the Orbival association will mobilize elected officials to reflect on this extension. ==References==
