Once again, opening up Brittany is a strong theme in the regional elections. At stake, the completion of the RN 164 which crosses central Brittany. And the question of daily mobility. What transport policy for Brittany?
–
The Brittany region will spend in 2021, 369 million euros for its mobility policy.
This budget is mainly used to finance the BreizhGO regional transport network.
BreizhGO represents 380 daily TER journeys, 3,000 interurban and school coaches, 9 islands served and 1 carpooling platform.
Daily commuting is at the heart of regional transport policy. The transport budget is the second largest item of expenditure for the regional council.
The candidates’ policy on daily mobility is therefore a key issue for these regions, according to Thomas Frinault, political scientist.
“In Brittany, there is a large proportion of Bretons, who do not work in the municipality where they live, so the home / work issue is an important issue.“Thomas Frinault analysis,”There is a real difference between urban areas where there is a satisfactory supply, and rural areas where there is a form of catching up to do.“

The Brittany region also owns the Brest, Rennes, Dinard and Quimper airports.
And it finances the completion of the national road 164, essential for opening up Central Brittany. A site for which the State’s investment will be crucial, according to Thomas Frinault. “Opening up is a leitmotif shared by all“notes Thomas Frinault,”the question is rather how to open up“.

With a view to opening up “by all road“, the question of completing the RN 164 is essential. Others may wish,”put the package on public transport and rail“. But in any case, Thomas Frinault reminds us, it is a question on which”the positioning of the state will be decisive.”
