Are tourists affected by French smog alerts?

Check if you are allowed to circulate during a French pollution alert, in regions or cities.

An emergency scheme can be activated when PM10 levels are reached or estimated to be reached.
The region or department then decides on the measures that have to be taken to lower the PM10  levels. This might include a driving ban for certain vehicles depending on their Euro standard.

Find more information about where to find out about:
  • smog alerts
  • which vehicles are affected
  • where to buy the, in case of a smog alert, mandatory Crit'Air stickers on our French page under 'Pollution Emergency'.

Also interesting for you might be that the Low Emission Zone in Grenoble has tightened its standard. Find the relevant news article here.
