Limoges Angouleme Disruption

[Foulounoux]

So part two of the three part saga of the RN141 

Grenord to Roumaziere will be finished in 2024

Roumaziere to Chassenuil the final part is 2028

 

Chabanais bypass was originally due to start building back in 2006 when we bought Foulounoux

22 years for the whole project

The question then will be what need for the railway as an express bus service would be a cheaper option

Just goes to show that the French can do construction at. British pace too.🤭 

I'm still waiting for the start of the construction of the A154 from Nonancourt to south of Chartres, bypassing St Remy sur Avre, Dreux and Chartres itself.

As long as I've been doing this drive there have been placards at St Remy saying, "Devier St Remy, vite!"

There is an agreed route, agreement on who pays, but still no start date.

St Remy is awful, with two roundabouts and three sets of lights, and the road through has the combined traffic of the N12 and the N154.

The rocades around both Dreux and Chartres are dreadful, the French having fallen into the trap of building commercial outlets at every roundabout, thus generating extra traffic and holdups, the exact things the rocades were meant to avoid.

27 years ago we got engaged in the Loire Valley

Our route from Calais was abbeyville Rouen then the N154

 

7 hrs to Blois

 

Today we get to the Charente in less time without rushing

But now and again we come via Orleans and then the N154

 

St Remy is always a stress point know it well
