Traffic changes in Châtillon-d’Azergues
Starting Monday, October 19, traffic in Châtillon-d’Azergues will change significantly due to construction at the Pont de Dorieux intersection, where the RD70 and RD596 roads meet. This area currently sees more than 15,000 vehicles daily, and traffic is expected to continue growing.Project goals and details
The project aims to improve safety for all road users, especially pedestrians. It will focus on the connection between the chemin du Plan and the chemin du Montgilloux, which are located along the banks of the Azergues river. The plan includes building a sidewalk and restoring pedestrian crossings to enhance safety at the intersection.Road closures and detours
During construction, the RD70 and RD596 roads will be closed at the worksite. The closure is expected to last ten days. However, a passage will remain open for residents in the affected area and for businesses in the nearby industrial zone. Detour routes will be established around Châtillon-d’Azergues to help drivers avoid the construction zone.Cost and information resources
The project is expected to cost 32,752 euros, including taxes. The Rhône Department encourages drivers to check Inforoute69 for real-time updates on road closures, detours, and any changes to traffic conditions in the region.
