Bison Futé
Symbolized by a little Native American, Bison Futé is a creation of the Centre National d'Information Routière, the French traffic information service which reports on travel conditions nationwide, particularly during holiday periods when traffic is heaviest, and recommends alternative routes (les itinéraires ‘bis’) for travellers keen to avoid traffic jams. The Bison Futé traffic tips are broadcast across the full range of media (radio, TV, the national press, the internet and minitel) and appear at regular intervals on the road system itself. Information is updated constantly to reflect actual traffic conditions enabling motorists to choose the best time to travel. Allied to Bison Futé is a colour-coding system to mark the relative intensity of traffic on the roads at any time (green, red, yellow and black) which is a key factor in staggering holiday traffic on the roads.
