Located on Avenue Pasteur in Haillan, the new Mermoz park-and-ride adds to the network of park-and-ride facilities in the metropolitan area. Easily accessible from the western part of Bordeaux and the Médoc, it aims to encourage a shift to public transportation while reducing car traffic in the center of Bordeaux.

A Facility Designed with the Environment in Mind
The park-and-ride facility has been designed with a strong environmental focus. Its structure is primarily made from wood sourced from New Aquitaine, and photovoltaic canopies have been installed on the roof. The construction project also helped preserve the existing trees while planting 20 new trees and over a hundred shrubs.
