The development planned for the Kerluherne and Sainte-Anne section in Vannes (Morbihan) aims to make cycling safer, more comfortable and attractive. This axis, which accounts for 21,000 vehicles/day, in both directions of traffic, represents a strong potential for a modal shift towards cycling, particularly for journeys to work.

Indeed, it connects Plescop, a town experiencing rapid demographic growth, to the city center and serves several business areas (Atlanparc, Laroiseau, Ker Lann, Parc Lann) representing an employment area of ​​nearly 6,000 employees.

The Vannes-Plescop link is one of these main routes. In this context, a 1.9 km cycle route will be developed by the city between the Sainte-Anne roundabout and the Kerluherne roundabout. This project includes several phases of work including the construction of two footbridges.

This Tuesday, June 25, 2024, the installation will begin, from 8:30 p.m. to 6 a.m., of the first footbridge crossing the RN165, the second having to pass later above the SNCF track. A project that promises to be spectacular. In fact, the RN will be closed on this section and a diversion has been put in place. Traffic will also be cut on the Sainte-Anne road, between the Sainte-Anne roundabout and that of Boizy, for the same period of time. There too, a diversion will be put in place.
