As we announced last spring, the crossroads by the main entrance to the Prévessin site will undergo work to widen the roads and bring the layout into compliance with the relevant standards. The work was originally scheduled to take place between 1 May and 30 October 2017, but ultimately had to be postponed and will instead take place this spring over 14 weeks, from the start of April to mid-July 2018.
Provisional schedule for the work:
- Phase 1: widening of the Salève side of Route Départementale 35 (RD35) – duration: 3 weeks
- Phase 2a: widening of the east side of Route de l’Europe – duration: 1 week
An alternating traffic system at the end of Route de l’Europe will be controlled by the traffic lights at the crossroads
- Phase 2b: widening of the west side of Route de l’Europe – duration: 2 weeks
An alternating traffic system at the end of Route de l’Europe will be controlled by the traffic lights at the crossroads
- Phase 3: installation of traffic islands on the RD35 - duration: 3 weeks
- Phase 4: widening of the Jura side of the RD35 and of the access road to the Prévessin site – duration: 3 weeks
- Phase 5: road surfacing work – duration: 1 week
This work will take place at night. A diversion will be in place to allow access to the Prévessin site via the road to the waste disposal site (déchetterie).
Unfortunately, traffic is likely to be disrupted throughout the duration of the work.
Thank you for your understanding.
