Detail of traffic conditions
During winter season, traffic forecasts are usually updated on Thursday, and are available until around 25 April. After this date, traffic is normally free flowing.

- either to have metal snow chains or textile snow socks to equip at least two of the car’s driving wheels.
- or to be equipped with four winter tyres.
