The demolition of the Félix Merlin gymnasium in Épinay-sur-Seine, as part of the New National Urban Renewal Program, will cause temporary traffic and pedestrian modifications until November 7th.

The transformation of the Orgemont district, planned under the New National Urban Renewal Program (NPNRU), reaches a new stage with the demolition of the Félix Merlin gymnasium. Demolition work on this public facility, scheduled to last until December 2026, will result in temporary traffic changes.
To ensure everyone's safety, SPL Plaine Commune, the contracting authority, and Melchiorre, a specialized demolition company, are implementing temporary traffic arrangements.
Pedestrians will be required to use the opposite sidewalk until November 7th inclusive. For motorists, a diversion on a section of Félix-Merlin street will be in place from October 26th to November 7th inclusive.
The demolition of the Félix Merlin gymnasium follows the opening of the Althéa Laurin sports complex. It will free up space for future developments planned in Orgemont.
