We are still on the Boulevard Carnot, and no, I don’t know which Sadi Carnot it is named after (see yesterday’s entry). With two lanes in either direction plus parking on both sides, this is indeed considered a major roadway around here. Between Le Cannet where much highway traffic merges into it, and the Voie Rapide, a sort of urban highway that is built on top of the railroad tracks and that cuts the town into a northern and a more desirable southern side, the Boulevard Carnot features a bewildering number of traffic lights, none of which seem to be synchronized with any of the others. With the frequent stops that this imposes on motorists, there is plenty of time to admire the lovely buildings with their wrought iron or stone banisters and colorful flowers.
