I second that. I'll be riding through it on June 28th, although I personally saw the alternative route (RS1091) last September, and it looks easy enough to ride (although I wasn't on a bike at the time).can anybody confirm if this road is still open or has it closed again. thanks
I think it's only open for the height of the summer season will see if I can search out more info later.can anybody confirm if this road is still open or has it closed again. thanks
Hautes-Alpes website saying it's closed till 13 July:I second that. I'll be riding through it on June 28th, although I personally saw the alternative route (RS1091) last September, and it looks easy enough to ride (although I wasn't on a bike at the time).
RS1091 it is, then. Looks like a nice enough route, from what I saw before.Hautes-Alpes website saying it's closed till 13 July:
- D1091 Grand tunnel du Chambon en Isère, la route est fermée pour cause de travaux de construction depuis le 6/03/17 à 11:25, jusqu au 13/07/17 à 8:00, . Déviation : par les routes nationales 94, et 85 via Gap, ou par Chambéry, et le tunnel du Fréjus, tarif réduit sous conditions (renseignements auprès des Offices de tourisme).
I'm assuming that the rather stunning-looking road on the other side of the lake is open to cyclists.
The main road is shut for all vehiclesthanks for the help. i may not be the sharpest tool in the box, but are you saying its open for cycling but closed to motor vehicles
As far as I can see the main road north of the lake (D1091) is completely closed to traffic, the Route se Secours south of the lake (RS1091) is open to bikes and local/light traffic at all times (unless it's closed for any unexpoected safety reasons) http://www.hautes-alpes.fr/evenement/752/1639-actualite.htmthanks for the help. i may not be the sharpest tool in the box, but are you saying its open for cycling but closed to motor vehicles
I'm there that week alsoI second that. I'll be riding through it on June 28th, although I personally saw the alternative route (RS1091) last September, and it looks easy enough to ride (although I wasn't on a bike at the time).
