Question 14672 — road transport

Summary

Ms. Émilie Bonnivard draws the attention of the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, to the constant increase in traffic in the Mont-Cenis pass, particularly in the summer period, of trucks coming from eastern countries, and mainly from Poland. In the summer of 2018, this attendance saw a marked increase, with trucks at times forming a veritable column of traffic, thus affecting, on these narrow sections of road, the safety of users (motorists, motorcycles, hikers and cycle tourists). These vehicles do not contribute to the local economy: drivers eat and sleep in their trucks and do not use the highways. They also cause pollution, noise, danger and road congestion. Their professional constraints also diverge from the constraints in France (rest time, discs) giving rise to a feeling of unfair competition among those involved in the profession. Strengthening control measures for these small trucks would seem judicious and she thanks her for kindly indicating the measures she intends to take in order to normalize road traffic which continues to increase in Maurienne, even though priority must be given for the transport of goods in the Alpine valleys, by piggyback.
