Discover the most polluted places in Paris

The City of Paris has launched a tool, available at this address, that allows Parisians to track air pollution levels across the capital in real time. The data comes from Pollutrack and AirParif, and makes it possible to monitor live levels of fine particulates, nitrogen oxides and ozone.

Speaking at a press conference, the Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, explained: "Citizens are increasingly demanding information and action from the public authorities. In Paris, we have chosen transparency. All this data adds to our air quality monitoring system, so that we can act even more effectively on the sources of pollution. Our role is to put every resource at the service of innovation, to better understand and identify this scourge of modern cities ".

Unsurprisingly, the Paris ring road, the périphérique, is where pollution is most concentrated. Places such as Place de la République, Place de la Bastille and Boulevard Sébastopol also turn out to be extremely polluted.
