Last Thursday, security measures were taken in the pedestrian area of Mons when a building playing the role of commercial maternity threatened to collapse. No question of taking the slightest risk: the city of Mons had immediately installed a security perimeter, closing at the same time one of the accesses to the shopping street.
This Friday, the city of Mons confirmed that access had been released. A more restricted perimeter still secures the surroundings of the site, but pedestrian circulation is once once more possible on the entire axis. However, even if the emergency is no longer relevant, the problem has not been completely resolved and work will have to be undertaken during the course of next week, normally, thereby forcing the city to reinstate specific measures. traffic. The pedestrian should therefore be blocked once more, in a configuration similar to that of the last few days, that is to say between the JD Sports store and the passage du Center.
A few stores were impacted by the precautionary measures taken by the city. At this stage, the latter is still studying the possibility of granting compensation but nothing has been decided. It will indeed be necessary to analyze the impact of the measures taken on the turnover of the businesses concerned and more generally on the flow of pedestrians.
