Mobility survey at the French/Swiss borders in the Canton of Geneva

The Permanent Mission of Switzerland in Geneva has informed CERN that a survey of the journey habits of people travelling to Geneva will be conducted between the end of March and the beginning of April 2011 with a view to determining necessary improvements to local transport infrastructures.

Questionnaires will be distributed at the borders between 6.30 a.m. and 8.30 p.m to all those travelling to Geneva, whether on foot or by two-wheeled vehicle, car, bus or train. Each crossing point will be surveyed on one day only. The distribution of the questionnaires will be organised in such a way as to cause minimum traffic disruption but is likely to cause tailbacks on certain routes. Those receiving a questionnaire will be invited to complete it on line, on the relevant web site, or to submit it by post free of charge.

The Direction générale de la mobilité (DGM), the Service de la mobilité of the Canton of Vaud, the French authorities involved in organising the survey, the relevant police services and the border guards request that everyone comply with the temporary road signs that will be set up and to treat the survey personnel with courtesy.

For further information, please consult the website of the Canton of Geneva.
