The project involves several streets: Augustin Malroux Street, Petit Four Street, Place Sainte-Claire, Rhônel Street, and Elbène Street and Bonnecambe Street.
Augustin-Malroux Street, which runs alongside the prefecture, will become a new gateway to the Episcopal City, connecting the Lices Pompidou to Mariès Street. The goal is also to encourage pedestrians to more easily reach the Covered Market and the shopping streets.
The developments include widening sidewalks for easier walking and increased vegetation on streets and the square. Particular attention will be paid to the quality of the ground surfaces. These changes will lead to the removal of parking spaces. In parallel, a new residence will be built on the site of a dilapidated former building, demolished several years ago.
Work will begin by the end of 2026 on Augustin-Malroux Street with the repair of water networks, followed by initial road improvements. Bonnecambe Street and d’Elbène Street will be addressed shortly after. The second phase will focus on Place Sainte-Claire and Petit-Four Street. The final phase is scheduled for the end of 2027, with the project completion in early 2028.
