The holidays are over for several days already, but a new long weekend is looming. Bison Futé announcesdifficult traffic in France this Friday, November 8, 2024, at the dawn of three days of rest.

Orange all over the country

The traffic forecast service does not make anyone jealous: for this Friday, the entire country is orangewhether in the direction of departures or returns. This means that, according to the Bison Futé scale, circulation is expected to be difficult.
