Lifts in Lamarck Metro Station, Paris- IMEM Lifts

The Lamarck-Caulaincourt métro station first opened in 1912 and takes its name from the two main roads that cross near its entrance in the Rue Pierre-Dac, a doorway that sits in between two staircases that lead up to Montmartre. Inside, the platforms are 25 metres (82 feet) below street level.
The old lifts had become incapable of dealing with the enormous flows of passenger traffic through the station and, as a result, IMEM Lifts - already a major supplier to the RATP (Paris’s public transport authority) - was hired to design a brand-new lift system to resolve the station’s serious congestion problems.
