An extension to the existing GANIL facility in Caen, France is under construction. The new SPIRAL 2 construction will be realized in two phases, for the first phase the construction started in January 2011 and will consists of the accelerator buildings with two experimental facilities S3 and Neutrons for science (NFS). The second phase is the so called production building where radioactive ions are produced through the ISOL (Isotope Separation On Line) method. The produced radioactive ion beams (RIBs) will be extracted and accelerated up to 60keV from the ion sources, after beam purification the beam will be driven in the secondary beam lines either to a new experimental facility DESIR (Decay, excitation and storage of radioactive ions) constructed during the second phase of the new installation or the RIBs will be charge breed to form multi-charged ions that will be driven to the existing GANIL facility and post accelerated in the CIME cyclotron. This overview article gives a description of the secondary beam lines, the foreseen beam diagnostics which will allow tuning and controlling the radioactive ion beams in the secondary beam lines constructed in the SPIRAL2 Phase 2.
