Concerning emergency accommodation, some residents found refuge with relatives, while 50 people were relocated to hotels.
Faced with this threat, local residents were evacuated or asked not to return home, while the neighborhood will remain inaccessible for its residents until mid-afternoon.
This incident poses a risk of the machine collapsing on homes emptied of their occupants, which led to the establishment of a large security perimeter.
During the night, technicians managed to stabilize the base of the crane in order to limit the risk of falling.
Several hours of work are still necessary before the machine is completely dismantled.
The origin of the technical problem comes from two wheels of the crane which came off the rails, causing a risk of tipping backwards since the day before.
In the evening, nearly 250 people were evacuated or asked not to return home.
Some residents found refuge with relatives, 50 people were relocated to hotels.
It was 40 meters above the ground, on the morning of Friday October 30, that the technicians began dismantling the unstable crane.
