France suspends winter bans
Winter driving bans have been suspended in the Rhône-Alpes region.
The French Ministry of the Interior has issued a decree amending driving bans for trucks over 7.5 tonnes on certain roads in the Rhône-Alpes region. Vehicles of this category will be allowed to travel on the following Saturdays: February 6, February 13, February 20, February 27, and March 6.
The decision to suspend HGV driving bans in the Rhône-Alpes region is related to the closure of ski lifts and the expected decline in the volume of road traffic.
