Groupe 6 wins the redevelopment of Bussy-Saint-Georges RER station
Epamarne, the public development agency for Marne-la-Vallée, announced last Tuesday that the practice Groupe 6 had won the competition for the redevelopment of Bussy-Saint-Georges RER station. It beat Marion Talagrand and Gautier+Conquet in this restricted procedure.
Bussy-Saint-Georges has grown, but the area around the station has remained as it was originally built. Over time, it has become a mere thoroughfare. The project launched by the development agency therefore aims to give this place a coherent identity, in both urban and transport terms.
Spread over a site of 33,400 m², from place Fulgence Bienvenue to square Vitlina via the bus station, the project seeks to create new uses for the station hub.
The architects have designed a pedestrian axis above the RER line, punctuated by kiosks housing services and small shops. The walkway will be largely covered by a metal structure topped with glazing.
This axis will lead to the Grand'Place, which will be laid out to host the town's major public events and its weekly market. The central space will be gently sloped, ending at the foot of a series of water jets.
