RAILWAY SYSTEM
Paris has different railway systems to serve the city as well as its outer suburb areas. Paris metro is working for last 100 yrs. Paris's metro has 14 lines, and 12 of these penetrate well into the surrounding suburbs. Most lines cross the city diametrically and only the above-mentioned inner-city circular lines serve as a unique lateral interconnection. The RER (reseau express regional) is a network of large-calibre regional trains that run far into the suburbs of Paris, with fewer stops within the city itself. From its first line A in 1977 it has grown into a network of five lines, A, B, C, D and E. Transilien train lines connecting Paris' main stations to the suburbs not reached by the RER. All of Paris' tramways had stopped running by 1957, but this mode of transport has begun to return to the Parisian scenery in recent years. Beginning in 1992, two lines (the T1 and T2) were built parallel to the outer boundaries of the capital. The all transit systems are the government-subsidised company whose jurisdiction covers all transport touching the Parisian Capital.

ROADS IN PARIS
Paris has well designed roadways after the Haussmanns era Bus service in Paris is very good. Paris' bus lines are its most developed form of transport, interconnecting all points of the capital and its closest suburban cities. There are a total of 58 bus lines operating in Paris that have a terminus within city limits. These bus lanes have been isolated from the rest of regular circulation through low concrete barriers that form "couloirs" and prevent all other forms of Paris circulation from even temporarily entering them.

CONCLUSION
Paris is divided into arrondishments with the help of streets and major roads. streets of Paris are narrow , so they ended up in traffic jam. Haussmann has improved it in 1850s but now it needs to be revised because of the number of increased motor vehicles and public movement. Paris metro is 100 yrs old. So it needs proper maintenance. Metro is being expanded to accommodate the travelers . They have begin RER in 1977 which rapid transit system to connect main Paris and its suburbs. Transilien rail system is new step towards rapid transit system. It covers rest of Paris where RER can not approach. Paris is connected with other EU countries with railways and airways. so we can say that transit system in Paris is good enough and it is improving their rapid transit systems
