Auditors have issued a scathing report on the Léman Express service. Not the actual trains, but the status of a series of projects designed to boost the attractiveness of using the service itself.
For the first time, three different Courts of Auditors joined forces – cantons Geneva and Vaud and France – to write the report.
They find that over 60% of the projects, which include park and ride carparks, cycle lanes and bus stops – are late.
The Léman Express opened to great fanfare four years ago.
One of the main problems identified was opposition from local authorities.
