- Routes
- The French road network, outside of the motorway system of autoroutes, is composed of routes départementales and routes nationales.
The route départementale is a secondary road, maintained by the département and signalled as ‘D’ followed by a road number and marked in yellow on French road maps. It is not intended to be used for fast travel between towns and can have stretches indicated in green on maps to mark panoramic views or local beauty spots.
The routes nationales form part of the state-maintained road network, signalled as ‘N’ followed by the road number and marked in red on French road maps. The routes nationales provide faster roads for travel between towns and cities. → Bison Futé

- Symbolized by a little Native American, Bison Futé is a creation of the Centre National d'Information Routière, the French traffic information service which reports on travel conditions nationwide, particularly during holiday periods when traffic is heaviest, and recommends alternative routes (les itinéraires ‘bis’) for travellers keen to avoid traffic jams. The Bison Futé traffic tips are broadcast across the full range of media (radio, TV, the national press, the internet and minitel) and appear at regular intervals on the road system itself. Information is updated constantly to reflect actual traffic conditions enabling motorists to choose the best time to travel. Allied to Bison Futé is a colour-coding system to mark the relative intensity of traffic on the roads at any time (green, red, yellow and black) which is a key factor in staggering holiday traffic on the roads.
