In order to improve the circulation in the boulevard des Moulins sector, to streamline the flow of vehicles and to facilitate the access of emergency services, the State Services have set up a new traffic system, which will be tested for a few months from Tuesday, June 5.
Bus lines 1 and 4, as well as the buses of the regional line 100 Nice-Monaco-Menton arriving from the direction of Place des Moulins, will no longer take the narrow lane of avenues Saint Laurent and Saint-Charles, but continue straight ahead between the crossroads boulevard des Moulins/avenue Saint Laurent and the Madonna roundabout. Other vehicles (VL, PL, 2 wheels) will continue to join the roundabout by the road that passes directly in front of the church Saint-Charles.
The left turn from boulevard des Moulins to avenue Saint-Laurent will be kept in place, particularly to facilitate access to the Saint-Charles School for parents. A number of parking spaces will be moved or abolished, while the pedestrian crossing will be moved a few metres for safety reasons. Delivery bays will also change.
The reason behind this overhaul of the traffic system at this very busy spot is to improve the response time of emergency services, which have been impeded on occasions in the past. The new scheme is also expected to improve the punctuality of bus services.
