Tourcoing's air quality reflects the Franco-Belgian textile metropolitan conurbation, with vehicle traffic on the A22 and the surrounding former textile and logistics industry in the Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing agglomeration contributing elevated NOₓ. Cross-border pollution from the Belgian industrial corridor and the dense metropolitan vehicle density make the Lille conurbation one of northern France's more challenging urban environments, while Tourcoing's position on the Belgian border amplifies cross-border industrial background pollution.
