Anne Hidalgo’s plans to develop the Paris ring road and the situation of her party… Othman Nasrou, vice-president of Les Républicians in the Île-de-France region, was the guest of “8h30 franceinfo” on Sunday September 1st, he answered questions from Benjamin Fontaine and Benjamin Sportouch.
50km/h ring road: a “totally ideological” decision
Lowering the speed to 50km/h on the Paris ring road is “a totally ideological decision, which does not care about the consequences, but only about the symbols”deplores Othman Nasrou, LR vice-president of the Île-de-France region. Paris Mayor Anne Hidlago announced this measure to “current October”, in the columns of the daily newspaper West France.
He denounces a decision taken “alone against all”, “without any impact study or consultation”whereas, according to him, “80% of ring road users are people who do not live in Paris” and that “40% of journeys on the ring road do not enter Paris”. So he doubts that Anne Hidalgo is “competent on her own to decide”. “She never wanted to be interested in questions of compensatory measures, diversion routes, parking at the entrances to Paris to go and take the metro”he says.
Reserving a lane on the ring road for carpooling “makes no sense”
Furthermore, Anne Hidalgo wants to reserve a lane of the ring road for cars carrying more than one person, public transport and taxis. A decision “which makes no sense”, for Othman Nasrou. He points out that the buses “in the left lane”will have to cross several lanes “to drop off users at each gate of the ring road”. “She didn’t think about the consequences”he still castigates.
Eric Ciotti creates the UDR: “I expect clarity”
Regarding Eric Ciotti’s announcement on Saturday to launch his new party, the Union of the Right for the Republic, “We stand firm in our ways, we are going to rebuild a republican and independent right“, reacts the LR vice-president of the Île-de-France region who adds that he is waiting “from Eric Ciotti, clarity and that he really leaves.” “The RN is a dead end that would ruin the country”, recalls Othman Nasrou.
