      Toulouse: Gathering And Hearings At The Administrative Court Against The Planned A69 Highway

      An opponent holds a cardboard sign with a message. People gather in Toulouse, France, on November 25, 2024, as plaintiffs, including LVEL, Attac, Amis de la Terre, and D'Ingrando, go on an 'administrative' trial against the French State, the builder NGE, and its concessionary Atosca, regarding the planned highway A69. Alice Terrasse, the main lawyer for 'La Voie Est Libre' (opponents), argues that the main reason for building this highway, a 'Major Imperative for public interest,' is invalid. The main association, 'La Voie est Libre' (meaning 'The Way is Free'), wants the construction of the highway to be stopped until all judicial decisions are made. Opponents of this project claim that reprofiling the N126 will suffice 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. More than 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural fields will be destroyed.
