7. © NP 7 Targets  Retain current logistics over 2 warehouses  The Paris-Melun line: use the rail lines available at off-peak hours  Optimise store deliveries  No change to delivery lead times

8. © NP 8 Description of the project  Rail transport to deliver merchandise to 60 Monoprix stores inside Paris. General merchandise (GM) and soft drinks (SD) From the warehouses in Combs-la-Ville (77) and Lieusaint (77) To a junction platform in Paris Using line D of the RER (regional train, Paris to Melun) and/or the Circular Line (Grande Ceinture)

24. © NP 24  Natural Gas Vehicle, low-noise, 29 sq. m ground-space, the equivalent to 21 pallets  Environmental benefits: Low pollution emissions Low-noise vehicles End deliveries: NGV trucks

25. © NP 25  Technical drawbacks: Limited range and power Higher purchase and operating costs  But city centre locations offset the drawbacks of GNVs. End deliveries: NGV trucks

26. © NP 26 Platform at Bercy: NGV station

27. © NP Environmental gains  Greatly reduced emissions of pollutants: 410 t fewer CO2 emissions = - 47% Harmful particles = - 52% Volatile organic compounds = - 44% NOx = - 56%  700 000 km reduced per year  250 rail shuttles substitute 10 000 trucks per year
