Information

► So far as we are aware at this time, it is extremely unlikely that the town of Villefranche will be completely cut off but we do anticipate that certain entry points to the town will be affected. We have no specific knowledge right now of where the demonstrators will be but we can assume the exits from the A6 motorway will be one of their targets.
Unfortunately, we can do no more than recommend that all participants prepare themselves by arriving earlier than originally planned, using the secondary roads.
► Beware, the SNCF informs us that there will be no trains between Lyon and Macon on 17th and 18th November. Substitute buses will be set up by SNCF. Information
