The Saint-Sever Nouvelle Gare eco-neighborhood project is part of the dynamics of the realisation of the New Paris Normandy Line (LNPN) and responds to the dual problem of the current rail saturation of the Rive Droite station and the lack of tertiary attractiveness of the Métropole. The Saint-Sever Nouvelle Gare project is part of Seine Cité’s overall objectives: redefinition of a new centrality for the heart of Rouen metropolis, in complementarity with the eco-neighbourhood Flaubert and Luciline.This project is part of the project of the Métropole Rouen Normandie, and is transcribed in the SCOT and the PDU.The eco-neighbourhood project Saint-Sever Nouvelle Gare in Rouen is based on a close interlinkage of urban, economic and transport issues. The aim is thus to create the conditions favourable to the increase of metropolitan functions in the territory with the opportunity to develop a quality service offer, in rapid connection with Paris and its main decision-making centres. This multifunctional district, building on the current Saint-Sever district, provides for mixed programming with the presence of housing, tertiary economic activities, public facilities, attractive public spaces and alternative car travel. It will also include a strong connection to the new station and the creation of a multimodal exchange hub in order to obtain the best possible conditions of accessibility and mobility as part of the redefinition of metropolitan centrality.In view of the introduction of the new station by 2030, the existing district must be revitalised and regain attractiveness.Also, in this context, the Métropole Rouen Normandie and the City of Rouen plan to reconfigure, year after year, the public and nature spaces of the hypercentre of Rouen on the left bank in order to encourage the return of biodiversity, the planting of the neighborhood and the access of the public to places of play, relaxation, leisure and outdoor sport.This action aims to completely redesign the Jardin Saint-Sever, a unique public garden in the heart of the Saint-Sever district, halfway between the banks of Seine and the garden of plants (about 1 km on both sides, a relevant distance for a stop on foot). The Jardin Saint-Sever overlooks the rue d’Elbeuf, which is one of the links of the pedestrian masterpiece of the heart of the town. As part of this project, the redevelopment of the sidewalks and the pedestrian crossing at the right of the garden is planned (complementary file — project management Métropole Rouen Normandie) in order to promote access and visibility of the garden, particularly for pedestrians and users of public transport (bus stops nearby). In addition, this garden next to 2 primary and kindergarten schools is an essential place for children’s activities, including school and extracurricular times.
