Pressure to close a peage

The most expensive peage in France
The péage at L'Union on the A68, where one pays 1.50€, is thought to be one of the most expensive in France for the short distance travelled. A collection of local maires is calling for the abolition of the pay station in an effort speed up the access to the Toulouse rocade. All local maires are in favour, including Toulouse city and the Haute Garonne department. But only the government can decide the suppression, so tomorrow (Wednesday 19th October) the maires will mount a "free passage" operation from 8am in order to put pressure on the minister for transport.
