RATP Dev restructures the MAT network over a five-year period and revitalises the transport offering with more frequent, more direct, faster and better-connected buses offering more services to passengers.
The emphasis is on improving bus frequency, a wider range of operating times for regular lines and an entirely remapped network for trips to take less time and a focus on access to leisure activities. Several lines stop at the Aquamalo complex, the new water activities facility for the conurbation.
