New Mission in Miramas: An Ambitious Urban Renewal Project for the Maille 1 and Mercure Districts

Located in Miramas, the Maille 1 and Mercure district is entering a new phase of transformation. Home to 2,700 residents — nearly 10% of the town’s population — this area is the focus of a large-scale urban renewal project as part of the New National Urban Renewal Program (NPNRU).

A District with Strong Development Potential

Already equipped with shops and services, this medium-sized district has many assets that make it ripe for sustainable urban revitalization. The goal is clear: to restore its residential and urban appeal and fully reintegrate it into the city by 2030.

This transformation goes far beyond simple renovations. It entails a comprehensive requalification of buildings, public facilities, and outdoor spaces, driven by four strategic priorities:

  • Enhance commercial activity and support a local, adapted economy

  • Open up the district with high-quality, ecological public spaces

  • Diversify the residential offering to promote social diversity

  • Upgrade public facilities to meet both local and territorial needs
