I guess that Parisians don't see why they should help the rest of the world, or even other French people. Have you ever tried to get from Gare du Nord to Metro Line 2? Although shown as an interchange on the map, its completely unsignposted. You have to go through the fare control at "Magenta Station", but there is no way of finding that out.The signage at Nord is appalling. Even something straightforward like finding Line B Southbound is somewhat challenging. The trouble with todays planners is as soon as they get their pencils out, they start adding zeros to the bill. Expansion by stealth and logical progressive developments are gone. If it doesn't cost a billion, they are not interested. It's not the planners' fault. It's whoever came up with PFI and other PPPs who's responsible for not being allowed to do anythign cheap. |
