Balanced development from north to south
The city of Montpellier is transforming thanks to a series of projects aimed at improving the quality of life of its inhabitants. From north to south, each district benefits from modernization work, from the redevelopment of public spaces to the improvement of transport infrastructure.

The development of cycle paths in the north is part of a broader commitment towards soft and ecological mobility. This extensive network makes it easier for residents to get around by bike, thereby reducing road congestion and pollution.
Beautification of the Esplanade and redevelopment of Place de la Comédie
