The west by-pass of the southern French city of Montpellier has been relaunched, a €270 million project to build 6km of dual carriageway.

The bypass will connect the A750 and A709 motorway, according to Vinci Autoroutes which will be the project manager. The route will be between the municipalities of Juvignac and Saint-Jean-de-Védas.

Construction on the design-build-operate project is expected to start by the beginning of 2026 for final commissioning by 2030.
