Traffic will be "difficult" this Saturday on the vacation route in the direction of departures and this, throughout the territory.
While the school holidays do not begin until July 7, "this period, located outside the school holidays in France, is affected by significant migratory flows on the main roads of the country", writes Bison Fûté on its website.
Flows mainly maintained by "French people, not subject to school obligations, who take their holidays at the beginning of the summer to take advantage of less attendance but also foreign tourists, in particular from Belgium for whom the holidays start this weekend ”.
