The snow is there, as expected, this Wednesday, January 10, 2024. The snow plows are already hard at work on the roads.
It was announced for this Wednesday, January 10, 2024 in Lozère, the snow began to fall in large flakes in Lozère and its prefecture. Public services were immediately called into action.
Small snowplows travel the steep streets of Mende to clear the white coat while large machines from state services take care of the main roads. The cobbled streets of the historic center, despite the carpets, remain very slippery. Agents sand by hand.
Winter tires and caution
On the road side, inforoute48.fr reminds that winter tires are mandatory to be able to travel. Snow covers the A75 motorway, particularly on the Col de la Fagette side, even if traffic remains fluid on the cleared lanes. Traffic between the motorway and Mende, on the RN88, was declared "delicate" mid-morning as well as on most major roads in Lozère. Be careful, therefore.
