Madam Speaker, I am informed by the Traffic Management and Road Safety Unit (TRMSU) of my Ministry that the village of Nouvelle France is crossed by Savanne Road A9 and Phoenix-Plaisance Road A10 and that no request has been received for the installation of speed humps or any other speed control measures along Phoenix-Plaisance Road A10, commonly known as Grand Port Road. I, however, understand that requests have been received for speed controlling measures at Pont Colville and Dream Price Supermarket, both located in the village of Nouvelle France. The TRMSU has advised that due to the topography and the alignment of the road, the construction of raised tables is not being envisaged at those locations as they may pose a problem in terms of visibility. Madam Speaker, the segment of both Savanne Road A9 and Phoenix-Plaisance Road A10 crossing the village of Nouvelle France currently have a speed limit of 60 km/h. The TRMSU is exploring the possibility of implementing speed zones of 40 km/h at the specific locations along routes A9 and A10 in order to control speed and enhance the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. The project would be implemented under the framework agreement by a contractor and the name of the contractor will emerge as soon as evaluation process is completed at the Central Procurement Board.
