The RATP Osmose bus station demonstrator: for the EBSF project (19743)

The Osmose bus station demonstrator is the result of an advanced design operation managed by the RATP, as a component of the EBSF (European Bus System of the Future) project, about new urban facilities for the future of the bus system. The station was installed in May 2012 for a 6 months experiment. It has been considered as a highly successful product creating comfort and pleasure, and bringing services to the passengers and also to the neighbourhood. Because the station dismantling was cancelled, due to a Paris City Council demand to keep it, the RATP has decided to transform it in a living lab until the installation of a new generation of shelter in 2015. This station will be used as an incubator of innovative services for public space transport stations. This presentation explains the story of this station (how it has been prepared, built, and evaluated), and presents the knowledge gathered through this operation, dealing with a new technical and business culture, and the interesting perspectives this station announces in the future public space equipments for the surface transport.
