This is currently the case and the Bouches-du-Rhône prefecture activated its level 1 ozone pollution alert system on Thursday.
At the same time, the town hall of Marseille, which recalls in a press release having "made sustainable development one of its priorities", announced "the doubling of hourly rates for passing motorists".
Conversely, it was decided for these same car parks to "free for residents benefiting from a rate dedicated to daily subscribers, within the perimeter of their respective district, in order to encourage them not to use their vehicle “, Says said press release.
