Half of Paris in the red
And unfortunately, when it comes to traffic, the list is even longerwith this time 31 axes affected, in 4 different districts: the 7th, 8th, 16th and 17th. A measure which is unlikely to improve traffic following the establishment of a limited traffic zone throughout the center of Paris at the start of the week… The only good news is that for now, the restriction will not take place that November 11, between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m.. 7 short hours of struggle then, but which should end before you have time to say phew. The area concerned extends from Concorde to Porte Maillot, passing through Alma-Marceau, Victor Hugo, Ternes or even the Madeleine. We'll let you have a good cry in front of the complete lists to be found right hereand above all good luck to everyone!
