"

Indeed, the first phase of the Ring Road will be inaugurated on Wednesday afternoon, February 20 at 5:00 p.m. by Prime Minister Navin Ramgoolam. But no provision seems to have been made ??to ensure pedestrian traffic on the roundabout installed Sorèze. No crosswalk or sidewalk.

The roundabout is located towards the Ring Road . With the opening of this road and the traffic is now expected, it will be a real danger to pedestrians, warns Mekraj Baldowa. What pushes a local resident to say that "the authorities have not learned lessons from the turn of the death Sorèze." This deviation, which slopes on the freeway up to Sorèze Montebello, caused several fatalities last year. It was installed because of the construction of the Ring Road .
