Traffic disrupted on departmental road 1005, in Meillerie and Lugrin, from October 21 to 31

Safety work against natural risks will be undertaken on departmental road 1005, in Meillerie, in particular after a tree threatened to fall on the track, Tuesday October 8, following bad weather. To prevent the situation from recurring, the Haute-Savoie Departmental Council wishes to clean the sectors concerned and install protective screens against falling elements. The cost of this work amounts to €150,000.

Several sectors will therefore see their traffic restricted in the coming days: it will be interrupted in the “SNCF-Lugrin Tunnel” sector from October 21 to 25, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., subject to favorable weather conditions. A diversion will be put in place, passing through Neuvecelle, the Abondance valley following Chevenoz, Vacheresse, Châtel, the Morgins pass and the Rhône plain, in Switzerland.

Another sector concerned, Effeuillasses-Meillerie: traffic will be alternating, from October 21 to 31. The Departmental Council details that it will be “punctually interrupted for periods of 15 minutes maximum”.
