The Andorra–France border is the border between Andorra and France. It extends over 57 km to the south of France (department of Ariège and Pyrenees-Orientales) and north and northeast of Andorra. This is the third smallest land border of France, after the border with Monaco and the border with the Netherlands (on the island of Saint Martin). == Specifications == It starts in the west at the western Andorra - Spain - France tripoint, located at the peak of Médécourbe (42°36'13"N 1°26'33" E).〔(The tripoints of Andorra ) grpdesbf.nl〕 It then follows a general direction north-east and then southeast to eastern Andorra - Spain - France tripoint 42°30'09"N 1°43'33" E). The Franco-Andorran border is essentially customary, which means that no international treaty specifically fixed in the plot (there is no boundary), except for the cases below. In 2001, a bilateral treaty between France and Andorra door rectification of the border. It stipulates the exchange of two equal areas of land plots of 15,925 m² each. The operation should enable Andorra construct on the assigned plot, the viaduct that will link the Envalira tunnel to the RN 22. The French town of Porta, in the Pyrénées-Orientales, challenged before the Judicial Division of the State Council as contrary to the treaty the Constitution: she complained, in fact, not to have been consulted before the drafting and approval of the treaty. The State Council has dismissed her application, arguing that the treaty had been ratified by law and that therefore it was not for it to rule on the legality of the law. Moreover, nothing obliges the state to consult with neighboring municipalities a border when adding a modification thereof. The pitch of the Casa, nearly 2000 metres above sea level, is the only road crossing point between the two countries. There is no rail crossing point (a bus shuttle service from the Pas de la Casa and Andorra station - L'Hospitalet located in the border town of L'Hospitalet-près-l'Andorre). In May 2015 the European commission adopted a cooperation program to improve the protection of the environment at the Spain-Andorra and Andorra–France borders.〔(Spain, France and Andorra: EU invests almost €190 million to boost cooperation across borders ) 20/05/2015〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andorra–France border」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
