The new big wheel of the Old Port of Saint-Raphaël (Var) Already turned, at the end of April afternoon. Despite the safety barriers and the construction machinery, some tourists stroll, ice cornet in hand, along the seafront in the midst of a revolution. Well advanced, the work of the section located at the foot of the casino and the Belle era facades of this Var seaside resort should be completed before the arrival of summer visitors.
But inhabitants and tourists will have to wait until 2028 to be able to serenely survey all of the new Bath promenade, future 4 km wooded allée connecting the ports of Fréjus and from Saint-Raphaël. A boost project at 65 million euros, straddling the two municipalities. The objective? Make more pleasant, elegant and accessible an old -fashioned seaside, lacking in shade and shaved too closely by cars.
