School renovation PPP project in Marseille

project canceled

The project involves the demolition and reconstruction of 14 dilapidated schools located across the city of Marseille, in the south of France, through a public-private partnership.  The schools to be renovated through the project all contain kindergarten and elementary classes of various sizes and span surface areas of between 3,000m2 and 7,000m2, including gymnasiums. In total, approximately 220 classrooms will be demolished and 270 rebuilt. The successful bidders will have to provide several services: the design and construction of the establishments; the demolition of existing establishments; the landscaping of the sites' outdoor spaces; and maintenance and renovation of establishments. They will also have to consider the urban integration of the new buildings and the treatment of their external spaces. The private partners will also have to partially finance the works, the remaining balance being met by the City.
