On the 20th March, in the ’Terra Viva’ broadcast, on the Euronews channel, an interview was held with Mr Philippe Jean, Managing Director of SOGREAH MAGELIS. The subject of the interview was ’Remediation of Lyon’s old industrial sites’.

The project purpose is to clean-up past industrial sites for the construction of housing and leisure areas. This represents a challenging urban development project at the heart of one of France’s most important cities. In cleaning up an area previously occupied by industries ranging from gas production to a carbon storage, the project is faced with a past that has left notable traces. The question is: How to clean-up such industrial sites?
