Cyclotourism Tour Against The A69 Highway Toulouse-Castres
A cyclist prepares his cycle before the departure. The collective 'La Voie Est Libre' (ie 'the way is free') organize a bicycle tour in four days to promote its counter project dubbed 'Une autre Voie' (ie 'another way' ) to the decried A69 highway from Toulouse to Castres. Nearly one hundred cyclists took part to the first stage. The main assocation 'La Voie est Libre' (ie 'The Way is Free'), opponents want the building of the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content to be given. All expropiations for farmers aren't cleared. Opponents at this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be suffisant for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 millions (in 2018 euros without the inflation) for 54 kilometers. More than 100 protected species and 400ha of agricultural fields will be destroyed. Toulouse.
