Line D opened in two separate regions due to the complexity of connections to be done. These sections were Paillade to Maguelones in Castelnau Le Lez and Aberdeen to Central in Palm Ridge. The latter was extended to North New Oak in 2020. This line had served the Canal section until 2020 when Line A took over. | Line D opened in two separate regions due to the complexity of connections to be done.

=== Line A Improvement works === | |||
Over the years, Line A has received multiple track improvement works. The curves around Dalesburg City Hall were redone when platform extension works occurred. As existing tunnels leading to Maguelones from Castelnau Arena were too sharp, a new route was done to allow for longer trains to operate. This renovation was completed in 2019, utilising a month-long closure. When the underground road tunnel was redone, a new route was needed between north of the new Maguelones portal and west of Dalesburg City Hall. A new gentle curve was done from the latter, with a new cut-and-cover tunnel dug. The line now has a road crossing due to space constraints. These works were completed in May 2021. Castelnau Arena would open at a later date due to extensive renovation involving the Castelnau Underground station. | |||
