Parisians used to bathe in the Seine in centuries past, until it was banned in 1923 due to pollution.
When the French capital hosted its first Olympic Games in 1900, swimming competitions took place in the river. But now clean up efforts, which started in 2018 as part of what is known as the “Swimming Plan,” are coming to fruition, and local authorities say residents will be able to make use of the river once again as part of the legacy of the Olympics, which is returning to the French capital after 100 years.
Authorities have also worked to rectify poor plumbing across the city, which in some cases saw wastewater pumped into storm drains. And existing efforts have already boosted water quality. Analysis carried out at the beginning of June showed “excellent results” in complying with European regulation, according to city hall. And testing in the parts of the river set to be used for Olympic events met standards 91% of the time from July 20 to August 11, 2022.
