Bad surprise for nearly 3,000 motorists in Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon on Tuesday. They discovered a small green piece of paper that looked like two drops of water from a traffic ticket. Except that it was actually false PV made by the municipality of the town.

The goal? D reported the management of the ZFE file led by the Metropolis of Lyon, which wants to ban all diesel vehicles on the majority of its territory by 2026. “These thousands of false tickets are an invitation to action, to awareness of the timetable imposed by the Métropole de Lyon”indicates the town hall of Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon.

A lack of alternatives

The municipality deplores a lack of alternatives to the car for the inhabitants of the municipality. “Fidésiens logically have a higher than average number of vehicles (86% have at least one). The alternatives to the car currently promoted by SYTRAL (bicycle, car sharing, cable car) could not respond to the diversity of situations and needs”she assures.

So she wants a better service and the arrival ofa new metro line. “We have long been asking for Metro E, the improvement of bus frequencies and amplitudes, as well as the creation and increase in the capacity of park and ride facilities.”
