Mobility needs are rising at a rapid pace, surpassing economic growth in many geographic regions. Transport is undergoing deep changes to adapt to new uses and reduce its carbon impact. In addition to diminishing their own footprints, VINCI Concessions companies managing motorway and airport concessions are working to decarbonise travel by road and air with quick wins as well as multi-year innovation programmes. The infrastructure they operate must meet steadily growing mobility demands at every level, from urban to international travel.
In June 2025, VINCI Autoroutes inaugurated the widened section of the A57, which passes through Toulon (south-east France). Dedicated public transport lanes and two bus stops, connecting directly to a multimodal transport hub, were created on the motorway, not only facilitating daily commutes but also encouraging greater use of public and multimodal transport. Motorway bus stops in an urban environment are a first in France and for the network under concession. This innovation demonstrates once again how motorways can accommodate many different methods of transport.
