There is no MF09 planned, the next stock will be the MP14. I don't know how will be called the next steel rolling stock.

I think that the delay in the renewal of rolling stock might suggest that there could be other lines with MF01.

A little bit offtop: are there any plans of reconstruction of the old ring railway for passengers?

^^ No there isn't any plan. The T3 tram killed any chance to reuse the ring as a passenger line.
Some sections have already being converted as park.

Only part of the western part is used by the RER C between Avenue Henri Martin and a bit before Porte de Clichy.

Yes, the extension of Line 14 is already under construction, see the pics posted by Minato Ku above. The extension of line 4 from Montrouge to Bagneux is also under construction, although this is something less ambitious. The future line 15, the backbone of the Grand Paris Express system, is now at the stage of preparation works in the first section to be built, in South-Western Outer Paris.

You can find the map of line 15 south from page 211 to page 215

Noisy - Champs
The platforms of line 15 will be built 14m under the ground. The line 15 south will have a transfer with the RER A, metro line 11 (ligne Orange in the documents) and the new metro line 16.
These three metro lines will have Noisy Champs as last stop.

Line 15 and 16 will be built in the same complex. Line 15 in upper level and line 16 is lower level.



Emprise de la Gare Grand Paris = Line 15 and 16 station
Tunnel Grand Paris = Tunnel of the line 15 and 16
Emprise du bâtiment gare Grand Paris = Main entrance building of the line 15 and 16 station
Gare de Correspondance = RER A and metro line 11
Cheminement de correspondance et d’accès = Transfer and access corridors


Bâtiment Gare Grand Paris = Main entrance building of the line 15/16 station
Quais Grand Paris = Platforms of the line 15 and line 16
Circulation vertical = Lifts, escalators and stairs
Locaux technique = Technical rooms



This may seem weird to see that the east side of line 15 is treated as a different line while the line 16 is threated as the same line.
This is due to a major change on the project, in the past plan line 16 was the east section of the red line and the line 15 south was the south section of the same red line.
The orange line was a different line serving the eastern inner suburbs with a branch at the south side.

This change as swithed the orange line with the eastern section of the red line.
The south and west section of red line and the orange line became the line 15 (the branch of the Orlange line to Noisy Champs became part of line 11) and the east section of red line was separated of the line and became the line 16.

Nothing better than pictures to understand.

Okay, now I'm confused. Is line 16 just going to run from Noisy-Champs to St-Denis Pleyel?

And 15 will run from Noisy-Champs around to Champigny Centre?

Also, there are a ton of other dotted lines in this image, like "TCSP Le Bourget-Villepinte" and "Est TVM". What do these various dotted lines mean? Some look like possible metro extensions. Others look like new lines, or tramways, like that "Tizen 3" (I think) starting from Gargan on the T4 and paralleling M5. Tizen 5 is paralleling the RER C along the Seine. What do all of these other lines mean?

Line 15: Noisy - Champs to Champigny centre, the line is a pan-shaped loop like Tokyo's Oedo line or London's Circle line.
Line 16: Noisy - Champs to Saint-Denis Pleyel

The grey dotted lines in the image like Tzen or TCSP or TVM, Atlival are busways.
There is one exception in the south between the two branch of metro line 7, the RD5 is the tramway T9.

TZen is a "network" of busway created by the STIF (Paris Region transportation autority).
TCSP means Transports collectifs en site propre, "public transports with their exclusive way". TCSP can designate anything with a little segregation from the other traffic, from busway to subway but usually this means busway.
TVM is Trans Val de Marne, it is the name of a busway line crossing Val de Marne department.

The small colored dotted lines are extension project of existing subway or tram lines (Metro line 1, line 5 and line 13, T8).
