New Year’s Eve is fast approaching and if many French people will wisely stay at home because of the health context and the curfew in force, some still plan to party. In order to make Isérois aware of the importance of continuing to respect health rules during this holiday season, the police carried out two major control operations this Wednesday evening, in the presence of the prefect of Isère, Lionel Beffre. The first one at the Grand Place shopping center in Grenoble and the second in a neighborhood from Pont-de-Claix, in the south of the Grenoble conurbation.

Respect for barrier gestures at Grand Place
The last races for the preparations for the New Year’s Eve will attract people to the stores this Thursday, December 31 and in particular at the Grand Place shopping center in Grenoble. It is for this reason that the prefect of Isère, Lionel Beffre, chose this place to conduct barrier gesture control operations.
