"Xavier Bertrand, the freshly elected president of the Calais region, told trucker bosses he wants to clear all of the migrants out of the notorious camp and then flatten it.
His promise was met with delight by hard-pressed haulage companies which have lost millions of pounds to the chaos caused by marauding migrants in the lawless port town
It comes amid growing violence against truckers in Calais, who are being targeted by migrants using increasingly extreme methods in their bid to smuggle themselves into Britain.
Lorry drivers fear that it is only a matter of time before one of them is killed, with migrants now pushing shopping trolleys off bridges and using rocks, metal bars and knives to break into their vehicles.
With the crisis costing Britain in lost goods and crippling northern France's previously booming tourist trade, Mr Cazeneuve today called a meeting with transport bosses to discuss a new response to the crisis.
During the discussions he reiterated his desire, stated earlier this week, to completely dismantle the Jungle camp to restore law and order to Calais.
In an earlier interview Mr Bertrand - who recently beat Marine Le Pen to become the new president of the Nord Pas de Calais Picardie region - told France's Europe 1 television channel he called for a "complete dismantlement" of the notorious camp.
He pledged: "We must not dismantle part of the jungle only for it to just take hold again elsewhere. We will fight until a return to the current norm is not possible.
"Long-term, we must come to a complete dismantling of the Jungle."
