Aéroport d'Orly station is a Paris Métro station serving as the terminus station of Line 14, built as part of the Grand Paris Express project. It is located on the land of the commune Paray-Vieille-Poste and serves Orly Airport, about 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) south of Paris. The station is planned to open together with the extension of Line 14 to the south on 24 June 2024, shortly before the start of the 2024 Summer Olympics.[2]
The station is located just in front of the Terminal 3 building connecting the West (Terminal 1, 2) and South (Terminal 4) buildings. Work began in March 2017 with the demolition of a road bridge opposite the drop-off point and the P0 parking extension.[3] Construction of the station started in September 2018 for delivery in 2024.[1]
At the station, connections are available to tramway T7 and the Orlyval automated shuttle to Antony station on line RER B.
Line 18 of Grand Paris Express is planned to start running from the station in 2027,[4] serving Massy – Palaiseau, the Saclay plateau and Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. Thus, it will connect the airport to Paris-Saclay, a research and business cluster to the south of Paris that is currently under construction. In 2030, the line will reach Versailles-Chantiers.
The station will be operated by RATP Dev from its opening in 2024 until at least 2027.[5]
