The plan “ Beautify your neighborhood » therefore arrives on the famous mound ! It is precisely the top of this which will undergo work from November 18 until August 31, 2025. For information, the objective is to condense this work as much as possible over a short period in order to minimize the impact of the work. on the inhabitants.
A few disruptions and nuisances will therefore be inevitable in this neighborhood with its often narrow streets and significant slopes. Lanes blocked, partial blocking of certain streets to mark the ground. Motorized traffic will be restricted (except for emergency vehicles), as for pedestrians, their access will be provided but maintained!
We will therefore have to be patient during these month of construction which will ultimately make this entire area much more fluid and pleasant to walk around on a daily basis!
What to expect at the end of summer 2025? The plan notably took into account the opinions of residents who were consulted! At the risk of making motorists cringe, the parking will be prohibited and this, definitively. There will also be more places to park bicycles and the creation of new road signs.
Fewer cars, more bike parkingthe Butte Montmartre is getting a makeover! See you at the end of August to discover its new face!
