Tisséo, the project owner, commissioned Apave to carry out sampling and analysis of excavated soil. As an independent inspection body, Apave is providing its expertise to ensure compliance with environmental standards and protection of the environment: inspection of decontamination work on sites, inspection of rainwater discharges, inspection of the potential impact of construction sites on their immediate environment (groundwater and surface water).

 

Apave's role is essential in ensuring rigorous control and constant monitoring, thereby guaranteeing that this major construction project contributes to a more sustainable future for the Pink City.


The Line C project was certified HQE Sustainable Infrastructure in October 2023 for the design of the structure.

Today, Tisséo Ingénierie is committed to implementing the project's environmental commitments and meeting the challenges associated with the recovery of excavated material, relying on reliable partners in construction and control.
