New project for Taravao

A new construction project is planned for Taravao, a town in French Polynesia, focusing on improving conditions for pedestrians and cyclists.

Details of the greenway

The project involves creating a wide, tree-lined sidewalk known as a "greenway," designed to provide shade and separate walkers and cyclists from vehicle traffic.

Minister's announcement

Jordy Chan, the Minister of Major Works, shared details of the project in a video posted on the government of French Polinesia’s page, emphasizing the goal of enhancing comfort for non-motorized travelers.

Location and timeline

The sidewalk will be built on both sides of the main road in Taravao’s town center, with construction expected to begin by the end of 2027.

Future expansion

The project may eventually extend to other nearby roads, aiming to improve the quality of life for residents across the area.
