Strangled by traffic, the fed up of the collective of the 4 boulevards

For the third time in the space of a few weeks, the collective of the 4 boulevards carried out a punch operation this Tuesday morning. Since the modification of the circulation in the city center of Montpellier, in particular to provide more space for the bicycle, the inhabitants of four boulevards denounce the explosion of car traffic and its procession of nuisances.

This Tuesday morning, around twenty of them blocked part of Boulevard Rabelais, between Avenue de Palavas and Rue Bazille, for an hour. Rabelais is, with boulevards Berthelot, Vieussens and Orient, one of the arteries where the number of cars has increased in the prefecture of Hérault.

Motorists and truck drivers turned to these lanes after the closure of the Comédie tunnel and Avenue Dubout in particular. An avenue which they are asking for the reopening. The inhabitants denounce the lack of communication with the town hall and the dangers they have been facing daily for several months, whether for their health or in their travels.
