[edit] Schemes
[edit] TER grande vitesse
With the objective of connecting all the towns on the Northwest coast to Lille in less than an hour, the Nord-Pas de Calais région has put in place TERGV. Certain trains, with the agreement of the SNCF, use the LGV Nord from Gare de Lille-Europe to reach their destination instead of conventional lines. This enables them to connect Lille to Calais, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque and Arras in less than an hour.
[edit] TER-MER
The Nord-Pas-de-Calais regional council offers during three or four week ends per year a promotion called opération TER-MER. The operation consists of selling return tickets to a chosen beach, where shuttle buses guaranty connexion to the beach, for €1. This promotion was used by 50 000 voyagers in 2005[citations needed].
[edit] Future projects
The région envisages to:
- double and electrify the line between Calais and Dunkerque
- build two new lines between Arras and Cambrai and between Douai and Orchies
- reopen the line between Béthune and Bruay-la-Buissière
- increase frequency of service between Lille and Lens
- create a new high speed regional service between Fourmies, Maubeuge and Lille, to reduce travel time from an hour and thirty minutes to forty-five minutes.
