Ultra loaded traffic on the roads of France.

Traffic is still dense this Saturday on the holiday route, with more than 1,000 kilometers of traffic jams in the middle of the day, classified red in the country by Bison Futé and even black in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

The peak of traffic was reached at noon with 1,051 km of slowdowns in total for this second crossover of the summer between the departure of holidaymakers in August and the return of those who left in July.

The main difficulties are concentrated on the A7 motorway in the Rhône valley, with more than 200 km of traffic jams and a journey time doubled compared to the usual between Lyon and Orange (Vaucluse) in the direction of the departures.

The A10 is also very busy with around a hundred kilometers of slowdowns between the Paris region and Bordeaux, a journey lengthened by more than two hours on Saturday compared to the usual.

Motorists should also be patient on the A9 around Montpellier and on the A75 south of Clermont-Ferrand.
