"Clemencia is a small village located between Camp de Masque Pavé-and Bel-Air, where life is good," say its inhabitants. The area's economy is mainly dependent on agriculture, which employs the bulk of the workforce. It is there that is the Eastern Conference. Members of the kinetic energies are active in the field to try to improve their living conditions and environment of the region.
Louis Désiré Aristide, their spokesman, explains how difficult it is for people to move, because Currently only one bus service Route 113 (Bel-Air in Port-Louis) through Clemencia."We have about 3000 people in this village and we are tired of explaining to the authorities our transportation problems. We are not rich and most of us do not have cars. We are forced to use taxis to facilitate our movements, "he deplored.
Way to get to Flacq, residents must take the bus from Port-Louis, down to Bel-Air and take another bus to Flacq . "Instead of paying 29 rupees, we have to pay almost Rs 120 for a round trip to downtown. This represents a considerable economic stress for us. " Apart from the financial expenses that entails, he explains that taxis often refuse to take the elderly and students. " Enn ta zanfan pa al lekol akoz problem transport. Souvan bizin pay enn taxi bien cher pou amen enn malade l’hopital."
In order to express their grievances, the Forces Vives have circulated a petition that they submitted to the National Transport Authority (NTA). They hope with all my heart that the problem will be solved soon.
A representative of the NTA concedes that indeed an application has been registered in this direction but that "for now, it can not be considered. "He adds:" We have not yet the potential number of passengers to access such a request. By cons, we have a bus available to students in the morning to 7 hours of Clemencia in Flacq and 14.30 for return. "
