ACTION 22 Contribute to urban transformation and
diversity
In addition to the opportunities created by the new metro,
Société du Grand Paris contributes to the development
of urban planning initiatives around the stations by making
use of the land acquired to build the Grand Paris Express.
Since its creation, Société du Grand Paris has sought to unite
all stakeholders around the project to ensure the development
and success of the station districts. For local stakeholders,
this is an opportunity to design and build station districts that
address the challenges of mobility, urban quality and quality
of life. This partnership work has resulted in the development
of real estate projects on the rights-of-way situated above
or in the immediate vicinity of stations, with the aim of
accommodating some of the amenities, businesses and
new residents.
New urban and real estate development projects
The demographic boom is already under way in the future
station districts, and the new metro will encourage the
construction of new housing to meet the growing demand.
The potential for urban renewal linked to the Grand Paris
Express extends within a radius of 800 metres around each
station, i.e. more than 140 km² (one and a half times the size
of Paris) and allowing the development of 35 million square
meters of floor space.
More than one million square meters of floor space, i.e. around
1,000 homes per year by 2032, will be developed on the land
acquired for the construction of the metro.
Station districts designed as mixed-use areas
Société du Grand Paris’s goal is to create vibrant,
resident-friendly neighbourhoods that are integrated
into their surroundings and work for everyone. The focus
on mixed-use development will build ties between future
transport ridership and urban activities. In practice, that
means developing continuity between each station and
its surroundings: neighbourhood retail, high-quality urban
facilities that encourage safe, eco-friendly behaviour, services
that meet residents’ needs, etc. The districts will be planned
in partnership with local urban planners and developers to
ensure continuity of use between projects.
