Covering a territory

APRR is wholly owned by Eiffarie, which is jointly owned by the Eiffage Group and Atlas Arteria. 

As long-standing developers of the French territory, we operate and maintain the infrastructure and the network while committing ourselves to acting with respect for the environment. 

Our 1,890-kilometre network connects French territories, supports economic development and promotes transport in all its forms by updating the travel experience. It extends from Paris to Mulhouse, from Toul to Lyon, from Annecy to Grenoble and from Bourges to Clermont-Ferrand.  

The APRR network is structured along 4 main lines: 

• Paris-Lyon (A5, A6, A31, A39) 
• Burgundy-Northern Europe (A31, A36) 
• Rhônalpin (A40, A42, A46) 
• Central France (A77, A71, A714, A719). 

Situated at the heart of Europe, the strategic position of the two networks fulfils the needs of transport companies, holidaymakers and commuters alike. 

The AREA network was born in the 70s with the ambition of creating a modern network of Alpine motorways. This movement naturally accompanied the rise of snow tourism and the region’s development. 

Based in the Rhone region, AREA, a subsidiary of APRR, has operated a 409-kilometre network since 2006, consisting of the A41 between Chambéry and Grenoble, the A43 between Lyon and Modane, the A48 between Lyon and Grenoble, the A49 between Voreppe and Valence and the A51 between Claix and the Col du Fau.
