Another official source is, for its part, shows that flowers and shrubs will be planted in these areas to prevent erosion. And to emphasize that retaining walls have been erected near the scene that involve risks of landslides.

Road Terre Rouge-Verdun, 15.7 km long, was inaugurated on December 2. In particular, it links the region of Bois-Marchand at Trianon and Valentina. A path that can be done in about 25 minutes since the entry into service of this colossus of bitumen. This road, which was created through a pharaonic site also allows drivers to bypass the capital and its traffic when they want to join North or South. It also facilitates access to several towns and villages.

Those who leave the region or Ripailles Quartier-Militaire and can get to Ebony and Rose Hill, for example, without having to St-Pierre. As well as the inhabitants of this region and those Moka can go north through Verdun.
