Just wondering what time traffic queues die down driving to Tignes on a Saturday? (14th March)
I am not in any particular rush to get there, but ideally not too late.
Thanks

When looking out of our apartment at VT on a saturday the traffic into the village is pretty nose to tail through the day and eases off around 8 pm. There would still be a stream of cars at this time but a fairly free moving one

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

14 March is one of the few weeks when there are no school hols so it will be pretty much like this week. I would aim to pass the Lyon area at 4pm - you will then be in Tignes by 7.30pm. If you ask again nearer the time we will know if there is any one off events that may kipper this prophecy!

The traffic issues are not near Tignes, but between Albertville and Bourg Saint Maurice.
14th March will be a quiet week so things shouldn't be too bad. Arrive at Albertville before mid-day or after 7pm and you shouldn't have any issues. In between, could add up to an hour or so delay.

You'll need to Register first of course.

@Philip1972, be aware that there's currently single-file traffic restrictions in operation on the Tignes access road across the top of the Chevril dam - a big crane has been plonked on the lake-side lane of the road for maintenance works on the dam, the works are reportedly scheduled to continue into June.
I'd plan for traffic being slower-moving than usual and probably not lightening up for an hour or so later than usual.

@Snow Beard, Not on transfer days - there are still 2 lanes available - its only when they are unloading from a truck that the single lane alternate will be enforced. I drove across yesterday.
