Place de la Gare aims to reinvent stations by introducing activities and services for passengers and locals. The programme aims to support local economic development and maintain lively stations across the whole country.
Place de la Gare reaffirms the station’s raison d’être: a gateway and a showcase for a region.
Place de la Gare collaborates with local stakeholders to provide a multitude of activities that will be useful to passengers, locals and the regions in order to re-establish the station at the heart of local life: health centres, multi-service businesses, open-air cafés, ‘third spaces’, micro-crèches, bicycle repair workshops. Got ideas? We have the space!
A dedicated platform
Are you a merchant, local entrepreneur, association or regional authority and looking for some space to use? We probably have space available. Contact us, express your interest in the adverts and present your project to us.
