The air is a little more breathable in Provence. The level 2 ozone pollution alert in force in four departments of the Provence-Alpes Côte d’Azur region will be lifted this Friday. In a press release, the organization responsible for monitoring air pollution in the Atmosud region justifies this decision by “a more dispersive meteorology with stronger winds in the Rhône valley and Vaucluse as well as thunderstorms at the end day in this area. »
And to warn: “the quality of the air will however remain poor but without exceeding the regulatory thresholds”. As a result, the Bouches-du-Rhône prefecture has announced that it will end differentiated traffic in Marseille.
