Île-de-France tramway Line 14 (T14; French: Ligne 14 du tramway d'Île-de-France) is a suburban tram-train line in Seine-et-Marne, east of Paris, which opened in March 2025. The line is operated by Stretto.
The line took over the Esbly–Crécy-la-Chapelle line from Transilien Line P between Esbly and Crécy-la-Chapelle, keeping the same rolling stock, route and schedule. It is the least frequented tramway line in Île-de-France, with around 1,000 passengers per day.[1]

History
The Esbly–Crécy-la-Chappelle line was opened in 1902.[2]
The line was converted into a tram-train line with the introduction of the Siemens Avanto rolling stock on 4 July 2011.[3] Due to reliability issues, it was replaced by the Alstom Citadis Dualis on 8 March 2022,[4] following tests on 12 February.[5]
Following a European Union decision, public transport in Île-de-France was opened to competition . One of the two contracts pertained to operating lines 4 and 11 of the Île-de-France tramway, and the Crécy-la-Chappelle–Esbly branch of Transilien Line P, which were allotted together as they used the same Dualis rolling stock and the same maintenance facilities in Noisy-le-Sec. It was awarded on 12 October 2023 to Stretto, a consortium of Keolis and SNCF Voyageurs created for that purpose.[2][6] The move was criticized by the left-wing regional opposition, citing fears of degradation of service quality and of worse conditions for railway workers, who would fall under a different legal status.[7]
In March 2025, Stretto began operating the Esbly–Crécy-la-Chapelle line, which was split from Transilien Line P as the new T14 line.[1]
