The south ring


View GSR in a larger map

 

 

The selected road is the national highway 87, or Grenoble south ring (GSR), in french la rocade sud, that links the city of Grenoble from the south-west to the north-east. It connects two motorways:

  • the A480, which goes from Paris and Lyon to Marseille;
  • the A41, which goes from Grenoble to Switzerland.

It is then a important medium of communication between two major motorways.

 

The Grenoble south ring in numbers

  • 10.5 km long
  • 9 nodes, 11 inputs and 10 outputs
  • 90 000 vehicles (5% of trucks) on the south ring, 100 000 on the A480 (6.5% of trucks)
  • Speed limit: 90 km/h
  • Variable speed limits: between 70 and 90 km/h
  • Time travel (for the whole south ring): from 15 minutes up to 50 minutes
