The Saint-Arnoult-en-Yvelines toll barrier on the A10 motorway was closed this Tuesday in the direction of Paris after a serious accident, Vinci Autoroutes said in a press release. The accident occurred around 4:30 p.m. after the toll, near the town of Longvilliers, Yvelines firefighters told France Bleu Paris. One person died and two others in relative emergency, according to this source.
The first elements indicate that a car driving in the opposite direction hit two other cars, France Bleu Paris learned from the gendarmerie. “A car driving in the wrong direction had been reported to us before the accident”confirms a spokesperson for Vinci Autoroutes to France Bleu Paris.
The accident led to the cutting of the A10 towards Paris, initially between Allainville and Les Ulis, then from 6:00 p.m., between Dourdan and Les Ulis. The highway reopened shortly before 7 p.m. Another accident, a little less serious, occurred upstream, firefighters said, calling on motorists to be vigilant.
Access to the A10 via Dourdan (entrance number 10) was also closed towards Paris. A diversion has been put in place. From the A10 at Allainville or the A11 at Ablis, Sytadin, the Ile-de-France road information site, advises taking the N10 towards Rambouillet then Bois d’Arcy.
