The "Navettes du Millénaire"

A new way to move into Paris

The "Navette du Millénaire" (Millénaire Shuttle) provide a link between the subway station "Corentin Cariou" (line 7) and the 110 000 m² of offices in the brand new "Parc du Millénaire" (Millenium park), every 10 minutes five days a week.

Each of the two ferries sailing on the "Canal Saint Martin" can transport 75 passengers who really appreciate silence and comfort onboard

Thanks to the power and maneuverability of the boats, drivers have no difficulty to sail in the narrow channel, whatever the weather is. The fast hook system combined with automatic doors allow time saving during call.

The very low consumption of those boats lead to a daily energy cost no more expensive than 1.5 € per day (recharging during low cost hours). With the "Navette du Millénaire", Alt.En has shown its ability to produce zero emission boats that can be fully integrated in the transportation network of a major european city
