The 16th stage will cross the department of Gard right through, with a departure from Montpellier for a legendary arrival at Mont Ventoux. While some municipalities will see runners scrolling, traffic prohibitions will be observed.
The Tour de France cycling returns to the Gard department! Between the big loop and the Gardois, it is a love story that never ceases to write each other each year, with, always, many people by the roads to come and admire the performances of the Pogacar and other Vingegaard, while secretly dreaming of a French victory.
A crossing of the department
This Tuesday, July 22, when the fictitious departure will be given to us neighbors Montpellier before a launch of the race in Prades-le-Lez, the circuit will quickly lead the peloton in our department via Corconne before coming out, a large hundred kilometers further, after Roquemaure, direction the legendary Mont Ventoux.
The Gard Departmental Council thus communicated on traffic prohibitions which will be observed so that the advertising caravan and then the teams in the race can run safely.
