People are demonstrating in the streets of Toulouse, France, on April 21, 2024, against the controversial A69 highway between Toulouse and Castres. Political parties, unions, and NGOs, including La Voie est Libre, GNSA, CGT, Sud, Greenpeace, XR, LFI, NPA, Amis de la Terre, and FSU, have called for this day of protest. Members of Parliament from La France Insoumise and elected officials from towns along the planned A69 route are participating in the protest. Before the march began, dozens of cyclists arrived from Castres on their bicycles. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' is leading the opposition, demanding that construction be halted until all judicial decisions are made. The expropriations for farmers have not been resolved. Opponents argue that upgrading the N126 would be sufficient for the anticipated 6,000 vehicles per day and would be much less expensive. The A69 highway is projected to cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros, excluding inflation) for 54 kilometers, and its construction would destroy habitats for over 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural land.

A plane tree in Saix, France, is currently hosting an Ecureuil (in red) who is standing in the tree to prevent its cutting for the A69 highway. After spending 37 days in the trees, the last three 'Ecureuils' have descended as the French Justice has ruled that the Crem'Arbre must be protected and the trees cannot be cut until September 1st. Supporters, including members of LVEL, are gathering to welcome the Ecureuils back to the ground. Riot police are present to maintain order. The 'Ecureuils' and their trees had been surrounded by police for over a month. In Saix, Tarn, on the planned A69 highway route between Toulouse and Castres, activists established a ZAD named 'Crem'Arbre' to live in the trees and prevent their removal. The main collective 'La Voie est Libre' is advocating for the highway project to be halted until all judicial decisions are finalized. Not all expropriations for farmers have been resolved. Opponents argue that upgrading the N126 would be sufficient for the anticipated 6,000 vehicles per day and would be much less expensive. The A69 highway is projected to cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros, excluding inflation) for 53 kilometers, and its construction would result in the destruction of over 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural land. The photo was taken in Saix, Tarn, France, on March 24, 2024.

An activist from a ZAD (Zone to Defend) is standing on a cut tree in the Crem'Arbre woods in Saix, Tarn, France, on March 24, 2024. After 37 days in the trees, the last three 'Ecureuils' (squirrels), who had been living in the trees of the Crem'Arbre ZAD to prevent them from being cut down, descended as the French Justice ruled that the Crem'Arbre must be protected and the trees cannot be cut until September 1st. Supporters, members of LVEL, gathered to welcome the 'Ecureuils' back to the ground. Riot police were present to prevent public disorder. The 'Ecureuils' and their trees had been surrounded by police for over a month. Opponents of the planned A69 highway between Toulouse and Castres have set up the Crem'Arbre ZAD and have been living in the trees to block the cutting. The main collective 'La Voie est Libre' (The Way is Free) is demanding that the highway project be halted until all judicial decisions have been made. Not all expropriations for farmers have been resolved. Opponents argue that upgrading the N126 would be sufficient for the anticipated 6,000 vehicles per day and would be much less expensive.
