MARENGO MULTIMODAL TRANSPORT HUB SECURES BUILDING PERMIT

The Marengo Multimodal Transport Hub in Toulouse, France, has received its building permit, marking a new step in the development of the 12,000 m² project located next to Gare Matabiau. The six-storey building will bring together bus, rail, metro, cycling, and pedestrian networks under one roof. A rose-colored crystalline roof, referencing the city’s traditional “foraine” brick, rises to 32 m towards the railway tracks. Public areas are planned to extend across the ground floor and two sub-levels, hosting retail, rest spaces, cultural activities, and the Maison du Climat. A 1,000-place bicycle station will be integrated into the site, while the upper floors provide offices for the Occitanie Region. Construction is scheduled to begin in summer 2026 and finish at the end of 2028, to align with the launch of metro line C and precede the arrival of the Toulouse–Bordeaux high-speed rail line.
