We present the Trap-rad experiment, which in the long term aims to an atomic parity violation (APV) measurement in francium isotopes. We describe the present status of the experiment, the francium production and the magneto-optical trap (MOT). Some details are given about our new CCD detection system. We explore then the possibility to perform APV measurements with francium. The low Trap-rad francium production rates should allow to perform preliminary tests. With higher rates attainable in other accelerator facilities, it should be possible to begin a francium APV experiment.
