. Started in 1970, existing segments cover about two-thirds of the ring, under different names (A104, N104, N184). Construction of the western sections, which would complete the Francilienne, was projected in the late 2000s to take place between 2011 and 2015. All future construction is to be to motorway standard and designated as A104 only.
However, in June 2013, the 'Mobilité 21' National Infrastructure Priority report pushed completion of the western section beyond 2021 and possibly 2030, relegating the Francilienne to a low-priority (second class) national infrastructure project (along with €80 billion worth of other road, rail, and river/port projects), behind €30 billion in high-priority (first class) projects likely to be the only ones built in France between 2017 and 2030, under currently projected budgetary constraints.
