Geneva and French authorities have signed a landmark agreement to jointly finance cross-border mobility infrastructure entirely on French soil.
The plan will see both sides invest CHF 182m by 2032 in projects aimed at easing traffic, including park-and-ride facilities, high-capacity buses, trams, and dedicated lanes.
Officials say the initiative is essential to tackle the region’s severe congestion, with Geneva alone experiencing five and a half hours of daily traffic delays.
Over 2,100 new park-and-ride spaces will be created, along with improved public transport links across the border, potentially removing thousands of cars from key crossings each day.
The projects hinge on a mandatory referendum in Geneva, expected in late 2026 or early 2027. If approved, work could begin soon after.
