Mayor Frédéric Laporte points out the dangerousness of the site.

“We had a large quantity of rubble, it would have been a shame not to use it”, emphasizes Frédéric Laporte, who cannot give a date on the filling of the swimming pool.

Rubble will return to La Verrerie

One thing is certain, it will be necessary to crush the large concrete blocks on site and remove the pieces of scrap in order to permanently block the pool. “All of this will be done as part of the Saint-Jean redevelopment project,” said the mayor.

Other rubble, resulting from the tower of the Glassworks, will also be used on the site of the demolition site. “We are going to remove part of the foundations of the tower. We will therefore have to collect rubble to stabilize the soil, ”explains Roselyne Vavra, director of Montluçon Habitat.
