REPORT - After the abandonment of the tourist project, this commune of Isère is waiting for their evacuation to turn the page.


Roybon

On the heights of Roybon, the road zigzags in a gentle slope, between fields dried by the sun and the chestnut forest which turns yellow as autumn approaches.

It is here, 5 km from this village of 1200 inhabitants located 60 km from Grenoble, that the entrance to one of the three ZADs (zones to defend) installed since 2014 to oppose the construction of 'a Center Parcs.

Led by the Pierre et Vacances group, the project was abandoned in July.

The opposition, made up of environmental associations and Zadistas, obtained in 2014 the support of the mayor of Grenoble, Éric Piolle (EELV).

All refused the destruction of wetlands resulting from the construction of 990 cottages.

The repeated legal proceedings and the radicalism of the Zadists got the better of the group's motivations.

But, a little over two months later, in the ZAD de la Marquise, named after the building taken over by the Zadists, the abandonment of the project has not changed anything.
