Question 13850 — transportation

Summary

Mr. François Jolivet draws the attention of the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, to the territorial divide in terms of mobility. An active person, who resides and works in a metropolis, uses the public transport network provided for a monthly subscription, half of which is covered by their employer. This asset, once its remaining liability has been reduced half, can travel unlimitedly in the metropolis at a fixed price. Furthermore, he does not need to buy a vehicle and therefore repay it. An active person, who lives and works in a rural area, uses his personal vehicle to travel in the absence of efficient transport services nearby. The cost of fuel, the price of which is constantly increasing, the cost of insurance, reimbursement of vehicle and possible breakdowns require a particularly substantial monthly budget. This territorial inequality contributes to French over-metropolisation and the desertification of rural areas, whose economic dynamism is therefore directly impacted. The inhabitants of rural areas, like Indre, have the feeling of being “a little far from everything” and of being forgotten by the public authorities. It is appropriate to embrace a more global vision on the provision of access to transport infrastructure or mobility assistance devices. Mobility is a major source of freedom and an essential condition for access to housing, employment and education. Territorial equity must be a republican virtue, he asks what measures have been implemented to restore equality in terms of mobility.
