Julien Thomas becomes Managing Director of SMTPC

The Board of Directors of the Société Marseillaise du Tunnel Prado Carénage (SMTPC) has announced the appointment of Julien Thomas as Chief Executive Officer, effective June 2, 2025. This decision follows the departure of Jérôme Havard, who is seeking a new professional opportunity.
