The reinforcing strips are coated in an elastomeric composition. A mean overlap between the reinforcing strips of the two layers is greater than 40%. The reinforcing strips are made of a thermoplastic film having a modulus greater than 0.9 GPa, and preferably greater than 2 GPa, in a main direction and in a transverse direction.
