Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo has put forward plans to invest €300 million over the next 15 years to improve the Eiffel Tower for tourists, with the main aim being to cut queues, the Local France reports.
Proposed upgrades aim to reduce those infamous queues by creating new welcome areas and systems for managing peak times.
The investment will aim to cut the queues both to get in to the famous Iron Lady and then subsequent waits on the first and second levels.
Plans also include giving the monument a new face lift.
The 300 million will be spread out over the 15 years in 20 million-a-year installments, this is a sizeable increase from the current 13.7 million a year invested in the tower.
These upgrades come as Paris is hoping to win the nomination of host city for the 2024 Olympics as well as the World Expo in 2025.
