The RN20 highway in the Haute Ariège region remains paralyzed for several months due to a landslide, causing significant economic damage, particularly to local businesses in L’Hospitalet-près-l’Andorre. Mayor Arnaud Diaz describes the situation as "catastrophic," noting a drastic drop in clientele, comparable to the first COVID-19 lockdown, with daily traffic reduced from 8,000 vehicles to virtually none. This isolation impacts not only the village but also Andorra and Cerdagne, which rely heavily on the RN20 as an economic corridor. Diaz warns that without state intervention to address the severity of the situation, job losses are likely, affecting the entire economic axis.
