The by-pass to be completed by November

Work starts in mid-March 2019, and the project will be complete in eight months time.
Operational in November 2019.
The RED element of the by-pass, 2.7 kilometres in length, will connect the two already complete sections of SW 1.65 km (1998) and NE 1.99 km (2003).
Finally the noisy heavy trucks will pass the cité idéale at a suitable distance!
