Project Overview
It is planed to run Transmanche Metro on the existing high-speed rail infrastructure to compliment Eurostar services. It will connect East London, North Kent, Ashford, Hastings and Calais with the Cote d'Opale, West Flanders and Lille metropole. The service will also act as a feeder into the existing transnational point-to-point services to London, Paris and Brussels.
