Nice's 2018 bid is already over, Annecy has been selected by France (mostly because it was unlikely to succeed and hinder Paris' chances of its next candidacy)

Re: A TGV line (none / 1)

At any rate, Sarko's bombast about building TGV lines at never-before-seen rates yet again proves itself to be hot air. He can't get on the track even just the projects Jospin started and Chirac & Juppé stopped. (Of which, by the way, the Lyon-Turin link would have benefitted Annecy.)

Re: A TGV line (none / 0)

I should also note that Sarko and his gang pursue all but one of the new lines as PPP... even if they can kick these off that way, they will be a good rip-off for some companies, I guess.
