Tunisia [Video]: Commemoration of the first anniversary of Amdoun tragedy accident​

By Rim Hana
| 29 novembre 2020

The parents of the victims of the bus crash in Amdoun and the civil society associations commemorated today the first anniversary of the tragic accident.

It is evoked that a year ago, a bus belonging to a travel agency organized an excursion to Tabarka but the vehicle plunged into a ravine in Amdoun, killing 31 people and injuring several others.

Since then, the site has been improved and a concrete barrier has been constructed along the road which overlooks a ravine.

This demonstration forms an act of solidarity with the victims and the wounded and intends to sensitize the government and the public opinion on the victims of the roads in order to stop the occurrence of such accidents.

This is an action directed at encouraging the government to observe roads, drivers and users who do not respect the driving rules as well as to operate to improve the condition of the roads to make them safer.

I saw this so many times! The men sat in the front on seats, the women sat in the back on hard floors with no shelter from the elements.

Residents of Ain Snoussi from Amdoun delegation where the dramatic bus wreck took place, stated that a year later after the tragedy nothing has changed and the threat is still there.

Apart from a concrete wall constructed to border the road viewing the ravine at the bend, nothing has been done, residents protest.

Speaking to Tunisie Numérique, They believe that this wall cannot stop the downfall of even a small car at the expense of a large truck.

Residents mourn that they are not consulted by officials who arrive in the region because they are the ones who know the truth of the problem and the solutions.

They suggest the construction of a bridge that will span the ravine and prevent accidents and limit deaths.
