It’s official: there will indeed an alternating traffic on Monday in Paris and its suburbs. The authorities responded to calls from the mayor of Paris, because of the persistence of particulate pollution in the capital. How does this device? Explanation 8 points. Why 8? Because it is an even number and an odd Monday we will update.
1 / What is alternating traffic
The principle is easy to remember: light vehicles (cars, scooters and motorbikes) Registrations odd circulate day odd s , registrations pairs day peers. Monday, we will be March 23, an odd day. Therefore, all registered vehicles can circulate normally odd. Conversely, those whose license plate ends in an even number will not be allowed out of the garage from 05:30.
2 / For whom is this circulation system ?
Please note, everyone is not affected by this measure! Only Paris and 22 towns are. Here is the exact list of cities that will have to go to this circulation system:
– In the Hauts-de-Seine (92): Montrouge, Malakoff, Vanves Issy . les-Moulineaux, Boulogne-Billancourt, Neuilly-sur-Seine, Levallois-Perret, Clichy
– Seine-Saint-Denis (93) : Saint-Ouen, Pantin ., Le Pré-Saint-Gervais, Les Lilas, Bagnolet, Montreuil, Aubervilliers, Saint Denis
– In the Val-de-Marne (94) : Vincennes, Saint -Mandé, Charenton-le-Pont, Ivry-sur-Seine, Le Kremlin-Bicetre, Gentilly.
And do not worry for those who take the A86. It is not affected, even if it crosses the above joint. The goal is to allow “normal road transit around the Paris restriction zone, in articulation with the Francilienne”.
3 / Will there any exceptions?
You are registered in odd and you say that on Monday promises hassle. You may be doing some of those lucky drivers who benefit from exemptions. Indeed, can run whatever registration:
• Vehicles considered “clean” (electric, hybrid, gas-powered) and cars carrying at least three people
• Vehicles with public service missions. Fire and rescue, law enforcement forces, health-related transportation, handicapped, drugs, funeral transport …
• For vehicles carrying supplies to people: food, refrigerated trucks, tankers
• The coaches and vehicles. , taxis, private cars with driver, driving school vehicles.
• Vehicles and construction machinery, troubleshooting, removal, Cleanup, dumpsters, fund transportation, newspapers, mail …
• Vehicles professionals in some cases. Sales representatives and journalists can for example use their car regardless of its license to get to work
• The vans and commercial vehicles of less than 3.5 tonnes
• Vehicles registered abroad
5 / Are there alternatives?
“There is no problem, there are only solutions “said André Gide. Rest assured, Le Figaro has identified all possible alternatives in order to facilitate the move. The first solution is to use public transport . Free access to and free for the duration of the alternating traffic, they allow travel in zones 1-5 by bus, metro, tram, RER or Transilien
Another good idea. the carpooling. Vehicles carrying at least three passengers are not subjected to alternating traffic and can therefore flow even with a pair plate. On carpool sites, some ads explicitly mention the license plate number to ensure travelers.
Taxis and VTC can also be a fallback solution since they are not subject to alternate circulation device. The taxi network G7 example already decided to massively mobilize its green fleet (approximately 2,000 vehicles) and WeCab shared taxi service for the next seven days.
Last option Car Rental … with a proper license plate. E-Loue group, specializing in car rental by owner, took the opportunity to launch its AutoVoisin platform, where the customer can choose to rent a vehicle to even or odd plate. Early Saturday afternoon, E-Loue announced that over 200 people had already used this new service!
6 / What will happen if I violate the rule?
You’ll probably have to pay a fine of any offense is liable to a contravention of the second class, or a fine of 22 euros if set once, and 35 euros beyond three days. You will then be asked to return to your place of origin, otherwise your car will be immobilized or impounded.
7 / This she has a real impact?
This is not the first time that this solution is considered. Alternating traffic had been established March 17, 2014, while it had not been established since 1997 in Paris. The measure had been a “visible impact” according Airparif, which found “a real reduction of exposure to particles and an even stronger decrease in exposure to nitrogen dioxide,” although However, experts remain divided on the effectiveness of the system.
8 / How can I learn?
