Roissy Charles-de-Gaulle The difficult management of a main gateway ?
Main gateway of Paris Ile-de-France Region CDG, one of the global hubs : 50 M pax, 2 Mt de fret High connectivity with North-West of Europe : HST, Highways (A1 & A16), future SeineNorth Europe canal…
Land transportation : no comprehensive approach
•
Roads radial axis overloaded, ring roads to be completed
•
Public transportation CDG, exceptional accessibility at national and international level, but low accessibility at the local level for passengers and employees several projects without a comprehensive approach
•
Goods domination of the road transportation future Seine-North Europe canal
CDG, a job pole •
CDG, an engine of job creation (80 000 jobs, 4000 new jobs/year since 10 years)
•
High unemployement rate in the close urban areas
Economic activity zones : a large offer, but not concentrated - 80 ZAE (2650 ha), - 4 ZAE > 100 ha (Paris-Nord II = 370 ha, Mitry-Mory = 250 ha, Roissy fret = 200 ha, Marly = 118 ha) 20% of the regional market Saling rythm - 60 ha/an, about 3 years of available capacity but 50 years in the prospects of local authorities
Economic activities • Garonor (logistic) • Logistic parks along A1 highway • 3% of the office park of the region • 30% of the storage park • Large exhibition parc (Villepinte 450.000 m2 to be extended to 600.000 m2) • Congress center, hôtels • Industries (aeronautic and car production) • A highly perfomance agriculture
Spatial organisation The airport limits the urbanization (noise protection) to the North and the emergence of strong urban centers A large agricultural plain : Plaine de France Large forests l’IsleAdam, Compiègne, included in Natural regional park The southern part has a decayed urban areas
Cohesion •
social and territorial disparities
•
Lack of jobs
•
Lack of access to the airport platform for inhabitants of the surroundings
•
Lack of balance of the economic income for the communes (taxes)
A low demography, high social disparities
•
A young population, big families, numerous decayed neighborhoods on the South of the Airport.
•
Low population growth, due only to natural balance
•
New middle class neighborhoods on the Northern part

How to manage the territory ? 1. Between noise and pollution to local developments 2. Between high accessibility performance and urban polarization that creates saturation 3. Between top-down to bottom-up processes : sharing the decision and the wealth to balance the development
•
How to develop housing projects (today 2400 housing unit/year) with the constraints of the Noise protection (new PEB, 180.000 inhabitants), the infrastructures, the pollutions
•
Need to upgrade decayed areas (ANRU)
How to preserve landscape, agriculture and natural areas ? • To promote low urban sprawl by compacity and density • To maintain large agriculture and landscape balances, upgrade valleys, to preserve biodiversity andlarge biological corridors • To fix urban fringes
How to make governance ?
Complexity of institutionnal system : • 50 Communes, • 2 Communities of communes • 3 Departements, • 2 Régions
In the middle : CDG with a special statut A privitazation process
Strategic sites in the Region
•
•
New towns
•
Airports
•
Large rebuilding sites
•
The River
•
Large integrated urban projects
•
Ecological priorities (PNR)
EPA Plaine de France (30 Communes) is covering CDG, Le Bourget and Plaine Commune (St Denis) but not the Eastern part of CDG
Local planning
From performance of the gateway to the urban pole : a contradiction ? •
High connectivity at international, national and metropolitan levels
•
Mix uses
•
High investment in equipment and infrastructures
•
Trafic jams
•
Competition with surrounding activities (mall/vs/retails centers in the commnes)
•
Unbalanced benefit at the local level
•
High capacity to attractprivate investments
