The Defenders of Lyon demonstrated at the end of June in front of the Town Hall – LyonMag
Update : According to the City of Lyon, figures from the collective such as Anne Delaigle, Christophe Cédat and Soledad le Greco participated in the Conference. The collective was therefore represented at the event.
Article initial : An event which should make it possible to identify the problems encountered by traders, particularly those on the Presqu'île, and ideally find solutions.
But many of those mainly concerned have decided to skip the workshops at City Hall.
The collective of defenders of Lyon and Greater Lyon announces that independent traders have “sulked” seats “whose program denoted a glaring lack of content and real interest in their issues and their daily reality”.
“No need for workshops, listen to everything we’ve been trying to tell you for months”the collective annoys to the attention of Grégory Doucet.
“Lyon was a very attractive city, today no one wants to set foot in the city center. The drop in footfall in shops is correlated with the drop in turnover of around -30%. piecemeal surveys by the CCI and merchant associations demonstrate this. The new completely anti-car developments which are carried out without an impact study, despite common sense and without consultation with either residents or merchants, have had a very strong impact. degraded the situation”conclude the defenders of Lyon who regret “the contempt displayed by the elected representatives of the Metropolis/City of Lyon majority”.
And to welcome the 3,000 participants in the survey launched two weeks ago, compared to only 2,924 participants in the public consultation for Let's Imagine the Peninsula of Tomorrow in the Metropolis over several months.
