The A13 motorway, a strategic axis between Paris and Normandy, undergoes regular maintenance, development, and modernization operations. This work, essential to ensure safety and comfort, may result in delays and the closure of service areas or exits. Thanks to the tools offered by Sanef, it is now possible to easily anticipate construction zones for a stress-free journey.

What types of construction are being carried out on The A13?

These may include:

Visible work on the roadway and rest areas

Construction work is underway :

• On the emergency lane, frequently used by responding officers,
• At motorway rest areas: temporary closures or access restrictions indicated on the interactive map.

The safety of the men and women in yellow

The men and women in yellow are motorway officers. They take risks every day to make the journey safer and more enjoyable for users of the A13 motorway.

Indeed, approximately 50% of accidents are caused when the yellow-clad drivers are setting up roadwork markers, and approximately one-third of collisions occur when emergency responders are helping drivers who have been injured or have broken down.

Here are some safety rules to avoid endangering them, your vehicle's occupants, and yourself:
Never encroach on the hard shoulder. Emergency and road maintenance vehicles travel on it, often at low speed, and broken-down vehicles can take refuge there.

Slow down as soon as you see the visual signals of emergency vehicles... and move into the left lane.
Always maintain the legal safety distance from the vehicles in front of you. Driving too close to a truck, for example, can prevent you from seeing the flashing lights in the distance.

A law for better protection

Since September 18, 2018, a law has protected highway workers:
Drivers must respect a virtual safety barrier when approaching any personnel on the roadway or its surroundings (officers, firefighters, police officers, etc.). Failure to comply with this rule can result in a fine of €135 and the loss of 3 points on your driving license.
