# Guadeloupe: mobilization of the Nou Las Palé collective and blockades > In late October 2026, after nearly two weeks of mobilization by the Nou Las Palé collective, several blockades and obstacles were reported in Le Gosier, Sainte-Anne and Baie-Mahault, without major disruptions. The collective then challenged the prefect's account of the cancellation of a meeting scheduled for October 25, stating it had never received an official invitation. On October 28, after the presence of asbestos was confirmed in rubble used for blockades in Jarry, MP Olivier Serva questioned the prefect about their origin and the risks involved. On October 31, the La Boucan bridge in Sainte-Rose was blocked with burning trash, with gendarmes opening a passage while traffic remained complicated in northern Basse-Terre. On November 1, the president of UDE-MEDEF, Bruno Blandin, denounced the blockade of the Jarry zone by José Gaddarkhan, notably with asbestos-contaminated rubble, which he considers harmful to thousands of businesses. **In brief**: Ongoing story bringing together 5 events in Guadeloupe, followed from 26 October 2026 to 1 November 2026. 8 articles from 1 source (society, politics, economy and 1 more); last updated on 1 November 2026 at 22:25. - Status: ongoing - Category: Society, Politics, Economy, Environment - Place: Guadeloupe - First detected: 26 October 2026 at 11:31 - Updated: 1 November 2026 at 22:25 - Web page: https://acturadar.com/en/stories/72-guadeloupe-mobilization-of-the-nou-las-pale-collective-and-blockades ## Timeline (5 events) ### 26 October 2026 — [Guadeloupe: a few barriers from the Nou Las Palé collective, overall traffic fluid](https://acturadar.com/en/events/1121-guadeloupe-a-few-barriers-from-the-nou-las-pale-collective-overall-traffic-fluid.md) After nearly two weeks of mobilization by the Nou Las Palé collective, a few barriers and obstacles were reported in Gosier, Sainte-Anne and Baie-Mahault, without major disruptions on Monday morning. 1 sources, 2 articles · Guadeloupe ### 26 October 2026 — [Guadeloupe: Nou Las Palé collective disputes prefect's account of cancelled meeting](https://acturadar.com/en/events/1105-guadeloupe-nou-las-pale-collective-disputes-prefect-s-account-of-cancelled.md) After the cancellation of a meeting scheduled for October 25 with the prefect of Guadeloupe, the Nou Las Palé collective says it never received an official invitation and accuses the authorities of reversing responsibility. 1 sources, 2 articles · Guadeloupe ### 28 October 2026 — [Asbestos rubble at Jarry: Olivier Serva questions the prefect](https://acturadar.com/en/events/2378-asbestos-rubble-at-jarry-olivier-serva-questions-the-prefect.md) Following the confirmation of the presence of asbestos in rubble used for the dams at Jarry, deputy Olivier Serva questions the prefect about their origin and the risks incurred. 1 sources, 2 articles · Jarry — Guadeloupe ### 31 October 2026 — [Guadeloupe : un barrage érigé au pont de La Boucan à Sainte-Rose](https://acturadar.com/en/events/5767-guadeloupe-un-barrage-erige-au-pont-de-la-boucan-a-sainte-rose.md) Le pont de La Boucan à Sainte-Rose (Guadeloupe) a été barré et des détritus enflammés dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi.
