Occitania. Castres-Toulouse motorway link: publication of the A 69 concession decree
The Castres-Toulouse motorway link project consists on the one hand of a new 54 km infrastructure between Castres and Verfeil, and on the other of the widening to 2×2 lanes of the A680 motorway over 8 km as well as the creation of an interchange at Verfeil by the company Autoroutes du Sud de la France.
On Friday April 22, 2022, the decree was published approving the concession contract signed between the State and the company ATOSCA, for the construction and operation of the A 69, between Castres, in the Tarn, and Verfeil, in Haute- Garonne.
This publication is an important step in serving the living and employment areas of Castres and Mazamet. The project was declared of public utility in 2018. It is one of the top priorities in the mobility orientation law.
It is now up to the ATOSCA and Autoroutes du Sud de la France concessionaires to take the necessary steps for the concrete progress of the project, which will make it possible to better meet the needs of opening up and development of the territory and to offer users a quality service. .
A committee of financiers will meet very soon to take stock of the implementation of the project.
