AMT has been selected to submit a bid for the Makepe Missoke site development project by the Douala Urban Community (Cameroon). AMT thus continues the thought process conducted within the framework of the urban project management workshop "Douala Ville Assemblée" on the themes of social development, recognition of informal economic activities, enhancement of natural resources, flood risk management, housing restructuring... that the urban project aims to integrate. The project is part of the "Douala Sustainable City" project supported by the FFEM (French Fund for the Global Environment) and AFD (French Development Agency).

AMT has been selected by the CA Val d'Yerres Val de Seine to present an offer for the Cinéastes La Plaine district in Epinay-sous-Sénart. Following the ANRU1, the CA now wishes to transform the La Plaine district, which constitutes the heart of the town.

Marion Talagrand led the "peri-urban" class of the first session of DEP diplomas at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure du Paysage de Versailles. Young landscape designers have captured often ordinary territories to identify their singularities... grasping their geography, embracing their uses, understanding their dynamic living systems... and questioning the life conditions within these often-neglected territories. The diplomas will be awarded at a ceremony at the EESC (Economic, Social and Environmental Council) on 14 December.

Situated at the exit of metro line 1 and on the route leading to the city centre, Place Bérault offers a village place that contrasts with the monumentality of the Avenue de Paris. The development project sought to restore this spirit by offering a central place available on the roadway, by introducing planted islets and by offering comfortable and generous paths. The urban vocabulary implements that of the city centre by seeking the similar qualities offered by natural stone, wooden furniture and a few selected plants that are rare to find in our Parisian squares. The construction site will be delivered in the summer of 2019.

The NPNRU studies in the Hauts-de-Creil region, for which the city of Creil and the CA Creil Sud Oise have selected AMT as the representative of the AMT consortium, Estran, Filigrane, ETC, SARECO, Bassetti and INGETEC, are launched during a site visit bringing together all the partners. The project concerns the three districts of the Hauts-de-Creil (Rouher, Cavées and Moulin), or the entire modern upper town developed over 3 decades as a counterpoint to the historic lower town. In a difficult economic context, the challenge of the project will be to find prospects for renewal based on the enhancement of the existing, the landscape, public spaces, housing and places of activity based on targeted and measured actions.

AMT has been selected by EPFAG to submit an offer for the Savanes district in Montsinéry in the hinterland of Cayenne. The project is part of the planning of the CA Centre Littoral, of which Cayenne is the main city. The destiny of this rural community is now to participate in the spatial control of Guyana's population growth as a "pole of equilibrium". The challenge of the urban project will consist therefore in anchoring this large-scale development project in the local context, in its ecological, sociological and economic dimensions. The team led by AMT includes Globule Rouge, SECOTEM, HANK, Urban Water and GERN.

The urban studies done by the Prime Contractor in Val Fourré, for which AMT was commissioned as representative of the group Filigrane, REP, ETC, Estran, Zefco and VPEAS, start with a site visit bringing together all the project partners (GPS&O, City of Mantes-la-Jolie, social landlords, government departments, state services, etc.). The challenge will be to continue the requalification / rehabilitation actions on the untreated sectors of the ANRU 01 but above all to profoundly transform the heart of the district which constitutes a "second city centre" for Mantes-la-Jolie.

Marion Talagrand intervenes at the public meeting for the presentation for renovation work at the Grand Centre of Cergy-Pontoise alongside Dominique Lefebvre, president of the agglomeration community. She presents the planning project for public space and for the concrete slab where beginning sitework starts soon.
