Paris Traffic Monster Drives City to Conquer It
A vivid portrait of Paris as a traffic beast, with rush hour loops around the Arc de Triomphe and planners building multilevel garages and ring roads to curb congestion. The piece notes 9 million residents, dense density, and efforts like Le Boulevard Peripherique, parking parks, and relocated markets. It ends with officials warning that deterioration continues despite grand plans.
