Twenty-six possible connections
Twenty-six possible links to neighboring EPCIs from the thirteen municipalities of the Agglomeration Community have been identified. The CAPFT has already approved the construction of the first intercommunity cycle links between Illange and Bertrange (community of municipalities of Arc Mosellan, CCAM) and from Thionville to Uckange (Community of Agglomeration of Val de Fensch, CAVF). It also validated the route connecting Manom to Hettange-Grande (CCCE) and Fontoy to Knutange (CAVF). “We want to go even further in promoting the area and favor soft modes in daily travel,” recalls Bernard Veinnant, vice-president of the Thionville agglomeration community and mayor of Basse-Ham. And even if the links between the inter EPCI cycling networks are not very developed today, the context of the energy transition law requires action in this direction to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. “Networking the territory and connecting the entire north of the Moselle to Luxembourg and Germany goes with the development of the electric bicycle”, estimates Pierre Cuny, president of the CAPFT and mayor of Thionville.
