Constructing the buildings of tomorrow with respect for the past — this is the ambition for the sponsorship agreement signed between Bouygues Travaux Publics and INRAP for a three-year period. A symbol of the relationship of trust created between both partners, this agreement underlines Bouygues Travaux Publics’ long-term commitment to supporting scientific culture and heritage conservation.
Created in 2002, the French National Institute for Preventive Archaeological Research (INRAP)’s mission is to ensure the detection, protection and conservation of heritage items affected by development works. Via excavations, publications and seminars, it takes part in the teaching and promotion of archaeological culture.
As INRAP’s major sponsor, Bouygues Travaux Publics will provide financial support in organising the Journées Nationales de l’Archéologie, the publication of original, fun and educational editorial content, and the one-off opening of digs to the public.
On a day-to-day basis, INRAP carries out diagnostics on sites scheduled for development by a public or private developer to measure their archaeological potential. INRAP’s work and the way it operates are emblematic of a French approach to preventive archaeology which has been globally emulated.
INRAP has been supported for four years by Bouygues Travaux Publics. During this time INRAP notably carried out all of the digs for the Nîmes-Montpellier rail bypass project where 34 archaeological sites were found in the land acquired for the line. The collection of educational game booklets “Tip Taupe” was also inaugurated in 2014 at this worksite. The booklets aim to educate young children on the importance of preventive archaeology.

The choice of location in Saint-Ouen's Docks district is no accident: the Fabrique du métro is located at the heart of an area which plays an emblematic role in the current Grand Paris development.
Creating new spaces and experimental urban projects – whether they’re cultural, social or economic – revitalising spaces before their conversion for future use, making use of empty buildings, creating a dynamic in which members of the community can get involved, encouraging them to take part and to contribute to the creation of an area’s identity etc. A look at temporary urbanism-–building cities differently so that they can adapt to fit the changing needs of their inhabitants.
Although construction remains a predominantly male environment, the mind-set is changing and endeavours to promote gender equality are increasing.
Bouygues Construction won two trophies awarded bythe OPPBTP (Professional Organisation for Accident Prevention in the Construction Industry)duringthe National Accident Prevention Meetings event on 12 October, in the presence of the Minister for Employment, representatives of worker and company organisations, administrators in charge of accident prevention, and leaders of companies in the construction industry.
