Securing the pine forest in Le Barcarès !
Security works started in the morning of Thursday, January 26th in the commune of Le Barcarès.
The objective of the operation is to limit the attacks of an insect pest, the hylesin, which infects and causes the mortality of some trees in the pine forest.
To stop their spread, dead trees that have been infected and are in danger of falling are being removed. This work also allows to secure the walking area.
For your safety, the site is closed to the public for the duration of the work.
You will be able to walk through a secure pine forest again at the end of March.
