Radio France will shut down its MW transmitters at the end of the year and the LW transmitter (France Inter) at the end of 2016.

From France Inter's website:
http://www.franceinter.fr/depeche-a-radio-france-moins-de-frequences-et-autant-de-tensions

Translated from the website by google:
The abandonment of medium and long waves will save 13 million euros, but the direction is the effort on the payroll that will relaunch the machine, with 19 million in savings by 2019. The Ministry of Culture wants to see.

 
Medium wave? This will be completed by the end of the year. Same end of 2016 for long waves. Two historic drop for the group, even if the two broadcast systems had become somewhat unnecessary long time.
