Front Populaire (Paris Métro)
Front Populaire () is part of Line 12 of the Paris Métro. It is named after the nearby Place du Front Populaire in Aubervilliers on the border with Saint-Denis, which was named in honour of a coalition of left-wing parties that governed France from 1936 to 1938. It was the 301st station to open. History Line 12 began operating on 5 November 1910 from Porte de Versailles to Notre-Dame-de-Lorette. During its construction, an extension to north of the line was planned and provisions were made at the end of the tunnels. These provisions were used in the 1960s for the construction of the A1 autoroute, putting an end to the possibility of using it for the line's extension. Towards the end of the 1990s, when the fourth Contrat de plan État-région (2000-2006) was released, an extension of line 12 was included in the plan to provide métro service to the communes of Saint-Denis and Aubervilliers. Consultations began in 2001 and public inquiries were conducted from 10 June 2003 u ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Aimé Césaire (Paris Métro)
Aimé Césaire () is a station on line 12 of the Paris Métro. The station is located at Place Henri-Rol-Tanguy in Aubervilliers. It is named in honour of the French Martinican poet Aimé Césaire. It is the 307th station to open. History After the death of Aimé Césaire in 2008, officials wanted to name a métro station after him. Jean-Christophe Lagarde, then the mayor of Drancy, proposed the name ''Proudhon-Gardinoux,'' although it was turned down by the RATP due to odonymic requirements for the naming of métro stations. STIF then decided to name it ''Front Populaire'' in 2011. On the other hand, the station that was temporarily named ''Pont de Stains'', after a nearby bridge, was then given the name ''Aimé Césaire'', with reference to the nearby square Aimé Césaire that was inaugurated on 6 July 2008. The station opened as part of the 2.8km second phase of the extension of line 12 from Porte de la Chapelle to Mairie d’Aubervilliers on 31 May 2022.. Front Populair ...
