VOICED : Paris ringroad Le Periph is 40

The video discusses the Peripherique, Europe's busiest motorway, which spans 35 kilometers and carries 1.2 million cars daily. While it has eased central Paris traffic, it poses challenges such as noise, pollution, and acting as a barrier between Paris and its suburbs. Efforts to mitigate these issues include covering parts of the motorway with greenery and building footbridges. Future plans involve reducing speed limits to cut pollution, though this may face resistance from drivers prioritizing speed over air quality.
