The conurbation of Caen and its surrounding suburbs, consisting of 29 towns and villages with 230,000 residents, reaches from the countryside to the sea and is renowned for its quality of life. Caen la mer has taken full responsibility for the conurbation in respect of economic development, road, rail and waterways networks, broadband network, housing, collection and treatment of household waste and waste water treatment.
To advance these objectives Caen la Mer has created two proactive agencies: Synergia (Economic Development Agency) and Normandie Aménagement (Public Private Initiative).
