Major Flooding Causes Road Closures and Emergency Measures in Gironde Department

Many roads were closed this Tuesday evening in the Gironde department due to flooding. On its site gironde.fr, the department’s road services list 20 in Médoc, 25 in Haute Gironde, 5 in Libournais and 3 in Graves Entre-deux-mers. And you have to be careful, because some are open to traffic but are also subject to flooding.

In Lacanau, faced with a saturated sanitation network, several sectors of the city have had to deal with rising water levels. The town hall has therefore opened the Cousteyre gymnasium so that those affected can use the building’s toilets until 11 p.m. this evening. The mayor, Laurent Peyrondet will do a Facebook Live on his Facebook profile from 6:30 p.m. to provide an update on the situation. He went during the day to meet the victims.
