 motorway aires - aires on the magnificent A75 autoroute | France zone at abelard.org
The A75 motorway (la Méridienne) runs from just north of Clermont-Ferrand in the north, southwards to Béziers, so crossing the Central Massif and adjacent areas of unusual geology.
This section, of 340 km between Clermont-Ferrand and Béziers, is free apart from the toll on the Viaduct de Millau.
The A75 motorway is being kept practically free to encourage commercial traffic travelling from Paris to the Mediterranean coast to use this new route, rather than the heavily-subscribed A6 motorway running through the heavily industrialised Rhone valley.

As of the 16th December 2004, the A75 autoroute Millau bridge crossing was opened and currently holds the title of 'World's tallest bridge'.
Unveiled by French President Monsieur Jacques Chirac, the A75 autoroute Millau bridge crossing has been built to "Unblock" the notorious Millau bottleneck saving an estimated 30 minutes under normal conditions and up to four hours on a busy summer weekend on a journey across the Gorges of the Tarn river.
Designed by the renowned British Architect Lord Norman Foster, the A75 autoroute Millau bridge crossing was described by Lord Foster as his "sculpture in the landscape."The whole thing looks impossibly delicate," Foster said in a telephone interview.

 FrenchDuck.co.uk and Allez Vins! Travel in France - autoroutes, millau viaduct
Unlike just a few years ago there are now 2 major alternative autoroutes to the notorious A6 via Lyon to the southern parts of France.
The scale of French investment in roads is impressive, and despite much of the network (but not all) being on tolls, the saving in time and potential road rage is well worthwhile for those in a hurry or with children.
For those heading to the Languedoc the A75 is now almost complete, and importantly the traditional bottleneck of Millau is now bypassed by the spectacular Viaduc de Millau over the Valley of the River Tarn, designed by Sir Norman Foster and the highest bridge piers in the world (240m high).

L’autoroute A75 Clermont-Ferrand Béziers, longue de 340 km, traverse 6 départements : le Puy de Dôme, la Haute-Loire, le Cantal, la Lozère, l’Aveyron et l’Hérault.
