A greener entrance: Rue des Bateliers being revamped
Once a charming street lined with parking lots and green spaces, Rue des Bateliers will be reimagined as a grand entrance to the Old Lille city center. This metamorphosis will commence shortly, bringing new public spaces to delight residents and visitors alike. In the first quarter of 2025, the first phase of the project will be complete, GOBjecting broad lanes for both cars and bicycles, while artful landscaping introduces a verdant landscape. Directly after completion of this phase, Landscapes will be developed around the new courthouse which will be ready for its inauguration.

Can you tell us a little about the vision behind this revamp? **Alex Reed:** Absolutely! Rue des Bateliers is a key entrance to our city, and we wanted to create a welcoming and vibrant space that reflects our commitment to sustainability. The new design incorporates more green space with added trees and planters, wider sidewalks for pedestrians, and dedicated bike lanes to encourage eco-friendly transportation [[image source]]. **Host:** That’s wonderful! What specific benefits do you think this redesign will bring to the community? **Alex Reed:** We anticipate several positive outcomes. Firstly, the increased greenery will improve air quality and contribute to a more pleasant atmosphere. Secondly, the wider sidewalks and bike lanes will encourage walking and cycling, leading to healthier lifestyles and reduced traffic congestion. the overall aesthetic enhancement will make Rue des Bateliers a more attractive destination, boosting local businesses and enhancing the city’s image. **Host:** This sounds like a truly transformative project. Are there any specific challenges you’ve encountered during the planning or construction phases? **Alex Reed:** Of course, any major urban project comes with its share of hurdles. We’ve had to carefully consider traffic flow and pedestrian access during construction while working with existing underground infrastructure. But the city council and local residents have been incredibly supportive, and we’re confident the end result will be well worth the effort. **Host:** We certainly agree! Thank you so much for sharing your insights, Alex Reed. We look forward to seeing the completed Rue des Bateliers and enjoying this greener entrance to the city. **Alex Reed:** It was my pleasure.
