French highway contracts are to be renewed in coming years.
French highway contracts will have to be renegotiated in coming years
The contracts for many of the earlier highway routes in France will be expiring in the 2031-2036 period. These routes date from the 1950s to the early 1970s and the various deals will have to be renegotiated. A new reported provided to France’s Finance Committee has proposed upgrading the rules and time periods for any new highway concessions.
An estimated 90% of the highway network presently handled under a concessionary basis will be subject to change with the contracts due for renegotiation during the 2031-2036 period.
