Vendredi 7 ao\u00fbt, \u00e0 la rue des S\u0153urs, \u00e0 Bimbo, un camion-citerne charg\u00e9 de gasoil s’est renvers\u00e9 et a percut\u00e9 deux buvettes install\u00e9es en bordure de route. Le bilan provisoire fait \u00e9tat de plus d’une dizaine de morts. Une journ\u00e9e de deuil national a \u00e9t\u00e9 observ\u00e9e ce mardi 11 ao\u00fbt en m\u00e9moire des victimes. Au-del\u00e0 de l’\u00e9motion l\u00e9gitime que suscite un tel drame, cet accident pose une question que la Centrafrique urbaine ne peut plus continuer d’esquiver : celle de la cohabitation, sur les m\u00eames espaces, entre axes de circulation lourde et commerces informels install\u00e9s \u00e0 m\u00eame le bitume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les buvettes, gargotes et \u00e9tals qui bordent les grands axes de Bangui et de sa p\u00e9riph\u00e9rie ne rel\u00e8vent pas d’un choix isol\u00e9 et irresponsable de leurs tenanciers. Elles r\u00e9pondent \u00e0 une logique \u00e9conomique implacable : c’est l\u00e0 que passe le monde, donc c’est l\u00e0 que se vend la bi\u00e8re, le caf\u00e9 ou le poisson brais\u00e9. Mais cette m\u00eame logique transforme chaque route \u00e0 fort trafic, chaque tron\u00e7on emprunt\u00e9 par des camions-citernes ou des poids lourds miniers, en zone \u00e0 risque permanent pour des commer\u00e7ants et des clients qui n’ont, la plupart du temps, aucune barri\u00e8re physique pour les prot\u00e9ger d’une sortie de route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il serait trop simple de d\u00e9signer un seul coupable. Les tenanciers de buvettes s’installent souvent faute d’alternative, sur des terrains non am\u00e9nag\u00e9s \u00e0 cet effet. Les propri\u00e9taires de camions-citernes, eux, transportent des mati\u00e8res dangereuses sur des routes qui n’ont pas toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 con\u00e7ues, ni entretenues, pour ce trafic. Quant aux autorit\u00e9s municipales, elles peinent \u00e0 faire respecter des r\u00e8gles d’urbanisme et de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 routi\u00e8re qui existent pourtant sur le papier, faute de moyens de contr\u00f4le suffisants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ce drame ne sera pas le dernier tant que ce triple constat ne d\u00e9bouchera pas sur des mesures concr\u00e8tes : recul obligatoire des installations commerciales par rapport \u00e0 la chauss\u00e9e, contr\u00f4le technique renforc\u00e9 des v\u00e9hicules transportant des mati\u00e8res inflammables, am\u00e9nagement de zones commerciales s\u00e9curis\u00e9es en dehors des axes \u00e0 forte circulation. Ce sont des choix d’am\u00e9nagement modestes, mais dont le co\u00fbt, compar\u00e9 \u00e0 celui d’une nouvelle trag\u00e9die, para\u00eet d\u00e9risoire. La m\u00e9moire des victimes de Bimbo m\u00e9rite mieux qu’une journ\u00e9e de deuil : elle m\u00e9rite que la prochaine catastrophe annonc\u00e9e soit, cette fois, \u00e9vit\u00e9e.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
