Gard is placed on orange alert by Météo France in the face of the risk of significant flooding.
The Beaucaire town hall is calling this Saturday, March 9 to move all vehicles parked on the Champ de Foire, the Casino and Arènes car parks because a major flood alert for the Rhône has been issued by the authorities.
Bench doors closed
The river should be particularly high this Saturday evening, which will force the Vallabrègues dam to quickly release water. The doors to the Banquette were being closed at midday.
Furthermore, the City of Beaucaire, for the same reasons, and by municipal decision, indicates that Luna Park was being evacuated at midday for security reasons. Regarding the cultural season show which was to be held in the area on Sunday afternoon, a decision will be made that same day in the morning.
