They haven’t slept for months. Even today, “at the slightest noise, we jump”. These inhabitants of a new subdivision located in Beuvange-sous-Saint-Michel, along the departmental road D14B which crosses the village-districts of Volkrange, Beuvange and Metzange, remain deeply marked. In May 2021, a car with four minors on board crossed the fence and ended up in their garden, between the swimming pool and the children’s trampoline, causing more than 15,000 euros in damage. “I am delighted every day that there have been no victims,” sighs the owner of the premises.

Since then, nothing has changed. The portion of RD14B, although limited to 50 km / h at this location, is still not secure according to the same residents who say they are afraid for their children. “Vehicles drive here at excessive speeds, day and night. Not to mention all the trucks that pass by, even though they are prohibited from driving. A neighbor counted up to two hundred a day! “, continues the Thionvillois.

Many letters have been exchanged with the town hall to request that checks be carried out and that work to slow down traffic be undertaken. The latest, received in early May, indicates that “significant security work will be carried out from September”, without however specifying the nature of these developments. Here, the fed up is palpable, especially since the area is particularly accident-prone. “A little higher, an 11-year-old child who was crossing on the pedestrian crossing was jostled by a car in 2020”, recalls the father of the family, who says he feels “Abandoned by the municipality”, specifying that no elected official had moved to take “the pulse”. And to resume: “What we want is to be safe, that our children can play quietly without risking being caught or knocked over by a car that thinks it is on a Formula 1 circuit. “
