The project of the Clean Transport in the Western Strasbourg Area (TSPO) is in full swing with the expansion of its network towards Strasbourg. This initiative aims to improve the *service* by vehicles by reclaiming and transforming sections of roads into reserved lanes for interurban buses. This document explores the fascinating details of this extension, its advantages, and the positive impact it will have on user mobility.
A Strategic Development
The TSPO project aims to create reserved lanes for public transport between Wasselonne and Strasbourg. These successive works, launched in 2012, have already established reserved corridors that enhance the reliability and speed of bus journeys. The launch of new interurban lines, scheduled for November 13, represents a significant step toward the completion of this ambitious project.
Modern Lanes for Flexible Mobility
The new lanes, which even replace sections of traditional roads, will be 3 km long and extend from the interchange of Wolfisheim to Strasbourg-Hautepierre. By integrating these sections into the public transport circuit, users will benefit from *smoother traffic* and reduced journey times. Interurban buses will therefore be able to travel without hindrance, allowing them to reach the heart of Strasbourg more efficiently.
A Cutting-Edge Multimodal Hub
At the end of the works, a new multimodal hub will be put into service, becoming the first bus stop on a 2×2 lane road in France. This hub will allow for a quick connection with the tram D line, thus facilitating the transfer from one mode of transport to another. This development represents a real time-saving benefit for users heading to the CHU de Hautepierre or the central station.
A Revolution for Users
For users in the municipalities northwest of Strasbourg, this project will bring a *revolution* in daily commutes. With improved service and significantly reduced journey times, these enhancements will contribute to making public transport more attractive. The time required to reach areas such as the CHU will now be reduced from 40 to 20 minutes, a real change for commuters.
With the expected completion of these developments, the TSPO network will be on its way to a complete transformation. The next phases of work are planned to include further extensions and improvements aimed at enhancing the appeal of public transport and providing a great alternative to individual car use. By strengthening this network, the community demonstrates a commitment to investing in a sustainable future for mobility, with a clear vision of urban development and transportation for all.
