Parisians want to ban thermal two-wheelers in the capital

The official results will be communicated in the coming weeks.

But already, some lessons can be learned from the consultation on the noise plan of the City of Paris, which ended Monday evening.

This aims to reduce noise pollution in the capital, through 30 concrete actions unveiled in October.

But to go further, the teams of Dan Lert, deputy mayor of Paris in charge of ecological transition, had wished to question Parisians on this subject, leaving them the possibility of validating or not the ideas of the City, as well as to bring theirs.

Results ?

The most voted proposal does not appear in the noise plan.

It must be said that it is radical, to say the least, asking for the outright ban of thermal two-wheelers.

An idea that received 944 favorable votes, but also 307 unfavorable.

Which shows, all the same, a certain cleavage on this subject.

Two acoustic radars soon to be deployed

Thus, it is difficult to imagine the City taking it back in this way.

But Dan Lert has already announced that he wants to fight against the noises emitted by motorcycles and scooters.

It is in this sense that two acoustic radars will be deployed in test in the streets of Paris, eventually fining the owners of vehicles that are too noisy with a fine of 135 euros.

An idea that received 821 votes in favor, and only 51 against.

Other proposals are even more divisive than the ban on thermal two-wheelers.

The lowering of speed in Paris - yet already implemented - as well as the possible transformation of the ring road almost divide the population in two.

A population which shows, on the other hand, almost unanimous on the necessary regulation of summer terraces.
