Rhônexpress is an express tram-train service which links central Lyon, France, with its airport, Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport, and the TGV train station located there. The route is 23 kilometres long, and served by six tram-train sets, built by Swiss manufacturer Stadler Rail. The route from the airport to the city's business center at Part-Dieu Villette by way of Vaulx-en-Velin – La Soie and Meyzieu takes roughly half an hour. Services run every 15–30 minutes. The project included building 8.5 kilometres of new tracks, while the remainder of the route runs along the existing T3 tram line, on which passing tracks were built in some stations to allow express service. The service is independently run and is not a part of the TCL system, although it appears on TCL maps. The Conseil général of the Rhône franchised the operation of this line for 30 years to Rhônexpress, a consortium including Vinci SA , Veolia Transport , Vossloh Infrastructure Service , Cegelec Centre Est and the Caisse des dépôts et consignations. It opened on 9 August 2010.
