The driverless trains will run at 110 km/h, putting this among the fastest metros in the world.

βœ… 4 all-new metro lines
βœ… 68 new stations
βœ… 200 km (125 miles) of new tracks
βœ… 1 major line extension (Line 14, both ends)

Incredible that this is indirectly the baby of former french president Nicolas Sarkozy who went to jail last year for two weeks because his 2007 political campaign for said presidency had been illegally financed to the tune of 50M€ by Muhammar Ghadafi (yes, THE Ghadafi)
