On behalf of the elected officials of the Condrieu group tomorrow at the Condrieu municipal council, Cécile Michel, also former candidate for the deputation on the 8th district of Isère and elected regional (the Ecologists Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes), denounces “a lack of anticipation of the president of the Rhône department on a priority security issue. »
She specifies: “The decision to close the Condrieu- Les Roches bridge intervened in a precipitated manner on Tuesday, May 6. This decision was essential before the security issue for the population. »»
And to add: “An underlying decision for several months which could have and had to be largely anticipated and be the subject of rigorous information to the population. »»
-“A decision that should have been planned”
Explanations: “As early as February 2025, the mayor of Condrieu announced the need for urgent but sustainable work from April without which a traffic closure should take place in September. The elected officials of the Condrieu group tomorrow have pleaded for an early closure and organized at motorized vehicles in order to guarantee the maximum security of the population. This closure should have been planned and communicated well upstream, allowing the inhabitants and inhabitants of the basin to organize and find alternatives. »»
For the group “Condrieu tomorrow,” this situation is not an unpredictable incident. Surveillance has been in place for long months, but nothing was anticipated by precautionary measures for crossings. Today, this decision is taken in an emergency and for an indefinite period, without any date for sustainable work being clearly defined. »»
“The management of the file taken lightly”
“The management of this file is obviously taken lightly by the president of the Department which bears a heavy responsibility. The need for work has been affirmed long before 2020. It is imperative that concrete measures be put in place quickly to remedy this situation, ensure the security and mobility of all,” concludes Cécile Michel, elected municipal official of Condrieu and regional elected.
