Local Matters: Residents oppose the Bascharage bypass construction

ARA City Radio

For years, residents of Bascharage have been opposing the plans of the commune to build a bypass road. The municipality argues that the bypass would keep drive-through traffic out of the city centre. Residents however fear that the road will destroy local forests. Now, they took their fight to court. On Local Matters, Patrizia Arendt, president of the citizens' initiative Bigs, explains why they oppose the infrastructure works.
