The bypass is from Rouen (Seine-Maritime), yes.

For the government.

For the president of the Normandy region, Hervé Morin.

But not for the metropolis and for the inhabitants gathered in a collective, which never stops going to the front.

This sea serpent, over fifty years old, is a 41.5 km toll motorway project linking the A28 to the A13 and the A154.

Both roads already have names: A133 and A134.

The Prime Minister gave the green light in December, and the start of work is scheduled for 2027 or 2028, for commissioning in 2030-2031.

"This project will relieve congestion in the metropolis of Rouen and improve the quality of life of its inhabitants, who will spend less time in traffic jams", declared Jean Castex in

Paris-Normandie

at the end of last year .

All appeals have now been purged.

A dealer is currently being sought to finance it, with the help of public subsidies up to 55%: the State and local authorities, in this case the Normandy region (205 million euros) and the department of Seine-Maritime (40 million euros).

"A jerry can of contradictions" offered to Hervé Morin

If Rouen remains the only French metropolis of this size without a road bypass, opponents want to do without it.

They (again) carried out an action this week in front of the regional hotel, where “a jerry can of contradictions” was offered to Hervé Morin,

says

Actu.fr.

A red can offered by the green demonstrators.

Elected officials and environmental activists were present today in front of the Regional Council for the rally against the highway bypass project east of #Rouen.

The region must withdraw its expensive funding from this ecocide project of another century!

At the same time, the president of the region held a plenary meeting for a “Norman IPCC action plan”.

“We are in full contradiction, when we are looking on the one hand for regional solutions for the fight against global warming, and on the other, we devote 205 million euros to a toll motorway”, summed up an activist. , reports the regional daily.

A free toll operation had been carried out by the collective a few days earlier, and other actions are already planned.

The decongestion of Rouen, if it is carried out, will therefore not be done without dams.
