- Transportation in France
- Transportation in France relies on one of the densest networks in the world with 146 km of road and 6.2 km of rail lines per 100 km. Major efforts have been made since World War II to improve and modernize the extensive French transportation system and to lessen its historical focus on the Paris metropolitan area. Train service, provided by the state, is fast and efficient, especially on the more than 12,000 km (7,456 mi) of electrified track. The French National Railways Trains à Grande Vitesse (TGV, "high speed trains") are world famous. In 1988 a consortium of French and British construction companies began work on the English Channel Tunnel or "Chunnel," completed in 1993, which established the first direct rail link between France and Britain. Airlines are also state run; Air France is one of the world's largest airline companies
