This extended weekend , thanks to Monday May 8th, is a good opportunity to improvise a weekend on the road. If you took the road on Friday, May 5, you have probably seen the traffic jams accumulate over the next few days, and it's not over yet! This Monday is classified as a red day in the direction of return in Ile-de-France. All day long, the A10, A6 and A13 freeways will be busy, especially at the toll booths, and this, until the night. Sunday will also be a heavy day on the roads back home, but Bison Futé sees orange.
Motorists are advised to prepare their trip well by checking the condition of their vehicle, planning regular breaks and adapting their driving to the weather conditions. Bison Futé also reminds drivers to respect speed limits and safety distances to ensure smooth and safe traffic. Bison Futé advises to cross the Île-de-France before noon, to avoid the worst traffic jams.
