Return to urban diversity

RETURN TO URBAN DIVERSITY

RATP Group is one of the few remaining players to maintain industrial activities and jobs in the city centre. In the heart of Paris, it has been working for several years on the urban integration of its sites (maintenance workshops, bus depots, etc.), with many ambitious projects such as restructuring the Ateliers d’Italie (13th arrondissement) or the Belgrand - Saint‑Fargeau site (20th arrondissement). In the 18th arrondissement, the Belliard bus depot, currently a completely built‑up 4‑hectare industrial site, will see 30% of its surface area greened and will be opened up to the neighbourhood to accommodate offices, shops and sports facilities. Its industrial activity will be maintained to support the full transition of the bus fleet to renewable energy. The new head office of the RATP Habitat subsidiary, in the 20th arrondissement, also illustrates these high‑quality standards. This eco‑designed building is BREEAM certified at “very good” level and E+C certified, and its roof terraces are greened, to allow urban farming and maintain biodiversity in the city.
