In partnership with the Grand Paris Transport and Development Organisation (SGP) and the Ile-de- France Regional and Interdepartmental Department of Infrastructure and Development (DRIEA), Apur continues to develop the observatory of the Grand Paris project station neighbourhoods through 2015, focusing on the extension of Line 14 from Pont Cardinet to Saint-Denis Pleyel in the north and from Maison Blanche Paris XIIIe to Orly airport in the south.
In 2014, the cross-analysis and the monographs concerning the 16 station neighbourhoods along Line 15 south and the 10 station neighbourhoods along Line 16, as well as the 11 monographs and the cross-analysis of Line 15 west, which will connect Saint-Denis Pleyel to Pont Sèvres were written up and published.
Six topics were covered by the Observatory: densities, the urban and landscape environment, the demographic and social profile of the population living in the station neighbourhoods, mobility and public space, and the dynamics of construction and projects.
The observation was carried out in two stages:
- A cross-analysis of all the station neighbourhoods along one Line, comparing the situation of each station neighbourhood one with the other.
- Monographs detailing the characteristics of each station neighbourhood and locating them in their immediate environment, not only in those communes affected by the arrival of the stations but also in the rest of the inner suburbs.
The work of the Observatory has increased our understanding of these territories. The cross-analysis has confirmed the great diversity of situations observed in the station neighbourhoods. It has supplied the facts necessary to manage the changes and transformations brought about by the arrival of the Grand Paris Express Network (RGPE). It has assisted in the decision-making process of the local authorities and key players affected by the RGPE.
