The RD 45 between La Croisette and Collonges-sous-Salève will be one-way downhill on Saturdays and Sundays from 2.30pm to 6.30pm.

Parking will be prohibited in certain zones at the summit of the Salève, to improve traffic flow.

If weather conditions make it necessary, the RD 45 may be closed in both directions from time to time, to enable the snow removal machine to make a round trip.

Who will be affected?
This downhill one-way system will apply to all vehicles, including emergency and snow-clearing vehicles.
Detour
People wishing to go to La Croisette should plan their route in advance.
It will still be possible to go up all day at weekends via the RD 15 and 48 from La Muraz.

Reminder :

winter road closures

  • The RD 41A between La Croisette and Monnetier-Mornex (route de l’Observatoire) is sometimes closed due to snowdrifts, until the snow has been cleared.
  • The RD 41A from La Croisette towards Cruseilles is closed every year, as soon as snow conditions allow, for winter sports.
  • Depending on the weather, certain roads may be closed due to flooding or landslides. Before taking to the road, consult inforoute74.fr.
