- VINCI Autoroutes (@VINCIAutoroutes) July 7, 2020"In an area of pipe sinking work under the motorway carried out by GRDF, significant damage has been seen on the left and middle tracks of the A7 motorway," added the manager.
Paomar plan activated
On the portion concerned, "for safety and while awaiting the result of the expert appraisals in progress", traffic is only carried out on the only right lane. During this summer period marked by heavy traffic on the A7, this traffic restriction obviously resulted in numerous traffic jams.
To unclog the axis, the Palomar plan was activated in the direction of Lyon, underlines Vinci Autoroutes. Motorists have been invited, from the Valence Sud exit (N ° 15), to reach Lyon via the A49 and A48 motorways. "Due to the expected traffic on this section of the A7 motorway, traffic disruptions are to be expected in the afternoon," added the operator, who recommends being well informed before committing to the 'A7 in the sector concerned.
Traffic information is detailed in real time on Radio Vinci Autoroutes (107.7) or via the Internet.
