description Optics and stability of the CNGS transfer lines TT40 and TT41 were studied with beam trajectories during its commissioning in July and August 2006. Steering magnet response measurements were used to analyze the optics and the quality of the steering magnets and of the beam position monitors. A strength error of the main quadrupoles was identified with this technique and corrected during the commissioning. The dispersion was measured and found to be close to the nominal value. Finally the short and the long term stability of the transfer lines were studied. The transfer line was found to be very stable and the dominant source of short term position jitter is due to the ripple of the extraction septum and energy fluctuations in the SPS.
