Taounate markets in dire straits Customers are forced to wear “boots” and demand the intervention of the authorities

The weekly markets in Taounate suffer from the lack of the necessary preparation, which makes them in a terrible condition, especially during the winter season, when they turn into pools of mud and collected water, forcing visitors to wear plastic “boots” to avoid suffering with the mud.

These conditions have sparked widespread criticism among civil society actors, who have called on local authorities and elected councils to urgently intervene to upgrade these markets by providing infrastructure that ensures favorable conditions for traders and shoppers alike.

Local activists are demanding the creation of improved paths within the markets to facilitate the movement of citizens, with proper drainage of rainwater, to avoid the annual recurrence of difficulties that hinder commercial activity in these vital spaces.
