The construction work exposes underground water, revealing a phreatic zone. The A69 highway is planned to be built on this phreatic zone. After the Administrative Court of Toulouse suspends all works on the A69 highway project between Toulouse and Castres, NGE/Atosca files an appeal against this decision and requests the Court to allow the works to continue while the appeal is judged. Two senators and two MPs from the Tarn department propose a retroactive law to authorize the building of the A69, aiming to bypass the decision of the Administrative Court of Toulouse. Atosca states that all leveling works have begun and that more than 70% of highway structures are completed. However, the leveling works and highway structures do not match the numbers provided by Atosca. Additionally, several issues affect the work, such as water evacuation and protection of species. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free'), consisting of opponents, wants the construction of the highway to be stopped until all judicial decisions are made. All expropriations for farmers are not resolved. Opponents of this project argue that the reprofiling of the N126 will suffice for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost significantly less. The A69 highway is estimated to cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros without inflation) for 54 kilometers. More than 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural fields will be destroyed. In Toulouse, France, on May 15, 2025.

People dump trash in Lisbon, Portugal, on December 28, 2024.

The Lisbon Municipal Workers' Union (STML) and STAL file a judicial complaint and embargo, with no court decision yet. An arbitration panel rules for reduced services on December 26-28, covering one-third of usual operations, which unions argue is excessive.
