Protesters stand with a banner reading 'Asphalt? To your good health!' near an NGE Roads asphalt plant in Villeneuve-Les-Lavaur, France, on November 8, 2025, for the planned A69 highway between Toulouse and Castres. The collective 'Collectif sans bitume' (i.e., 'Collective without asphalt') walks against the planned opening of a temporary asphalt plant for the A69 highway near the village of Villeneuve-Les-Lavaur. Inhabitants worry about the environmental and sanitary impacts of this plant. Several studies show an increase in autoimmune diseases and cancers near asphalt plants. NGE Roads and the Tarn's Prefect say there will be no negative effects as NGE Roads will measure the pollutants emitted in the air, and inhabitants will be informed if there is a problem with air quality. No measures will be done on the soil or vegetables. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free') and other opponents want the building of the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content are given. Opponents of this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros without inflation) for 54 kilometers.
