Summer vacation is approaching. For some, the resort has already been chosen, all that remains is to pack the bags. For others, it will wait a little longer. For everyone, however, it is time to take a first look at the traffic conditions, smart one having already announced his traffic forecast for summer 2021. A welcome help that will leave at the best time and to avoid, as far as possible, the endless traffic jams on the vacation route …
Summer will be hot on the roads of France
Without much surprise, the clever little Indian therefore sees RED in this summer 2021. A habit. Especially since this year, with the health crisis, the French should be even more likely to spend their holidays in France.
From July 6, date of the start of the solar holidays, until September 2, the day of the start of the school year, all weekends are therefore expected to be busy, even very busy.
In the direction of departures: avoid late July-early August
In the direction of departures, peaks in traffic are expected the last weekend of July (Saturday 31st) and the first weekend of August (Saturday 7). On these days, Bison Futé plans to hoist the BLACK flag, on all or part of the territory.
In the direction of the returns: forget August 21!
In the direction of returns, a date is to be remembered. And therefore to be avoided. That of Saturday, August 21. Bison Futé expects extremely difficult traffic (BLACK) in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and on the Mediterranean Arc. The situation will also be very difficult (RED) in the rest of the country.
