Design-construction of restructuring of the extension to the Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport terminal 3 building, consisting of construction of a separate satellite and an overhead-underground gallery.

The aim of the project is to double the capacity of terminal 3 dedicated to low cost flights, with an eventual objective of 3 million passengers. 

A satellite building designed so that 10 aircraft can park around it is built away from the terminal building on the tarmac  An overhead and subsequently underground gallery provides the link between the airport and the satellite. A specific focus on the atmospheres for the circulation routes accompanies travellers on the outward and return journey.

The project also meets several HQE requirements: energy management, with very high performance insulation in particular, storage of rainwater from roofs, visible peripheral solar protection, zenithal lighting, photovoltaic sensors, etc.
