Snow and ice: the Vinci Autoroutes teams are ready. | ARCHIVES CO
Each year, from November 15 to March 15, more than 2,000 Vinci Autoroutes employees are mobilized to intervene 24/7 in the event of a snow or ice alert throughout the 4,443 km operated.
Trained and trained in winter road maintenance, they must anticipate, intervene and inform. Their mission consists of monitoring driving conditions as closely as possible based on weather forecasts in order to inform drivers and intervene as quickly as possible to allow everyone to travel in complete safety, whatever the weather constraints.
The plan is currently activated and more than 20 officers and patrol officers are on standby. The salt spreaders are ready to intervene. We received a snow alert for Anjou with a few cm of snow. The VINCI Autoroutes teams mobilize to intervene depending on the event. We will obviously be ready in the event of a deterioration. Drivers are invited to check their vehicle's tires, the windshield washer and to always bring cover depending on the forecast weather.
explains a manager from Vinci Autoroutes Angers.
