      courtyard to the left of the clock.  Go down a small staircase
      (next to an advertisement billboard) to the bus station on the
      parking lot in front of the AUTOSUR building.  You will find a bus

  The bus for Paris (Porte d'Auteuil, Porte Dauphine and Place 
  de l'Etoile) leaves INRIA at 18:55. (Note: 17:00 = 5:00pm, etc.)

                          OTHER MEANS OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT

For full schedule of means of public transportation, see companion
file http://www-rocq.inria.fr/transport/horaires-bus.txt.

Other means of public transportation include:

  From Paris, Place de l'Etoile: daily bus, see above.

  From Versailles-Chantiers: Bus B.
    The blue Versailles city bus B direction "Rocquencourt" (35--45
    minutes ride, runs every ~10 minutes). To take bus B, walk down the
    ramp in front of the station to the bus stop on the other side of
    the main street.

  From Versailles-Rive-Droite: CFTA bus.
    From Versailles-Rive-Droite, CFTA bus towards Maule (10 minutes ride,
    departs: 7:08, 7:45, 8:05, 8:25, 8:46, 9:05, 9:30, 10:05, 11:35, 12:35,
    13:35, 15:35, 16:33, 16:53, etc.) The bus stands on the esplanade 
    in front of the station.

  From Versailles-Rive-Droite: bus B.
    You can reach the city bus B direction "Rocquencourt" (35--45
    minutes ride, runs every ~10 minutes) at Notre-Dame (5--10
    minutes walk from the station); it takes longer than the CFTA bus,
    but runs more frequently.

  From Versailles-Rive-Gauche: bus B.
    City bus B direction "Rocquencourt" (35--45 minutes ride, runs
    every ~10 minutes). Exit the station to the right, walk up to the
    traffic light, cross the large avenue, and go to the "Prefecture"
    bus stop on the other side.

Both B and CFTA buses stop just in front of INRIA (ask the driver).

By all means do NOT take bus P that goes to INRA instead of INRIA!

  Taxi from Versailles: 
    A bit faster and more convenient: same as above from Paris to
    Versailles.  Then take a taxi.  This will cost you approx. 70 F.
    Tell the taxi driver to bring you to "INRIA Rocquencourt".
    (Beware: there is a place called "INRA" in Versailles which is not
    the same; it's very far away from INRIA).

  Taxi from Paris: 
    Most convenient and most expensive: take a taxi from Paris.  This
    will cost you a lot, probably around 250 F.  See directions by car,
    below.

                *** By car or taxi, from Paris ***

Take "Autoroute de l'Ouest" (A 13 in the direction of "Rouen / St.
Quentin-en-Yvelines").  Get off at second exit (numbered 6),
"Saint-Germain / Versailles Notre-Dame".  Take a left towards
Versailles, then the second right (about 100 m. later), westwards,
towards "Bailly".  INRIA is about 250 m. from there, on your right.
The distance from Paris/Peripherique to INRIA is about 15 km (10
miles).  INRIA is on N 307, not far from the infamous "Triangle de
Rocquencourt" (but you must leave the autoroute before hitting the
"Triangle").

French version, for taxi drivers:

Prendre l'autoroute de l'Ouest.  Sortir a la 2eme sortie (numero 6),
"Saint-Germain / Versailles Notre-Dame". Prendre a gauche direction
Versailles, puis a 100m de la sortie de l'autoroute, la 2eme a droite
direction Bailly.  L'INRIA est a 250m sur la droite.  Il y a environ
15 km. entre le peripherique et l'INRIA.  L'INRIA est sur la N 307,
non loin du "Triangle de Rocquencourt" (mais il faut quitter
l'autoroute avant d'atteindre le "Triangle").

 *** By public transportation, from Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle (CDG) Airport ***

In general the fastest route is the following one, but it depends on
traffic.  Take the RATP bus "Roissybus" to "Paris-Opera".  There, walk
to the RER A station "Auber".  From there, follow indications for 
RER A.

The following alternative is in general slower but less dependent on traffic.
Go to the train station (if you are in the Roissy-1 building [the round one]
take airport shuttle bus to "Roissypole"; otherwise walk).  Buy a direct
ticket to Versailles-Rive-Droite.  Take any train to Paris.  Change at
"Chatelet / Les Halles" for the RER A line, direction "Saint-Germain-en-Laye".
Change at "La Defense" to "Versailles-Rive-Droite" (follow signs for
"Correspondance SNCF-Voyageurs munis de billets combines").  From
Versailles, see  shuttle bus or  taxi (recommended) directions above.  
Allow between 1 hour 30 min and 2 hours 30 min from the airport to
Versailles-Rive-Droite.

     *** By public transportation, from Orly (ORY) Airport ***

Take the Air France Bus to the "Gare Montparnasse" station in Paris.
>From there, take a train to Versailles.  From Versailles, see shuttle
bus or taxi (recommended) directions above.   Allow about 1 hour from
the airport to Versailles.

      *** By car, from Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle (CDG) Airport ***

Take the autoroute (freeway) towards Paris.  Follow the signs to
"Paris-Ouest", then the white-on-blue signs to
"Rouen/St-Quentin-en-Yvelines" or "A 13".  After the tunnel, same
directions as from Paris.

              *** By car, from Orly (ORY) Airport ***

Take the autoroute (freeway) towards Paris.  Following signs to "Versailles"
turn onto N186.  Follow N186 past Versailles.  Take "Saint-Cyr" exit.  At the
roundabout, take a sharp right towards "Centre Ville".  At the end of the
street, take a right; 100 meters later, at a light, take a left towards
"Bailly, Marly-le-Roi".  Just before the first town (Bailly) take a right
towards "Rocquencourt".  You will find INRIA to your left after 2km, at a
roundabout.

 French version, for taxi drivers:

Prendre la A86/N186 direction "Versailles".  Depasser Versailles, et prendre
la sortie "Saint-Cyr-l'Ecole".  Au rond-point, prendre a droite vers "Centre
Ville".  Au bout de la rue, a droite encore, puis, 100m plus loin, a gauche
vers "Marly-le-Roi, Bailly".  Passer un passage a niveau, l'autoroute, puis
(juste avant d'entrer dans Bailly) prendre la N307 a droite direction
"Rocquencourt".  L'INRIA se trouve a 2km, sur le cote gauche, a un rond-point.
