The A 61 Autoroute to be widened - Chaos ahead?



The A 61 autoroute between Carcassonne and Narbonne is a notorious bottleneck, especially when travelling east due to the fairly steep hills and slow moving lorries, or in summer the huge volume of traffic. 
Now Vinci, the operator of this autoroute, has announced that it will widen the carriageway to three lanes between Lézignan and Narbonne, starting the work in 2016. 
The cost is estimated at € 250 million and the work should create a further 20,000 jobs during the construction period.
