France: an HGV driving ban in Brittany on Thursday

Transport Minister Clément Beaune has announced that HGV traffic will be prohibited in Brittany owing to strong gusts of wind expected during Storm Ciarán.

The holiday driving ban on Wednesday will be retained, especially in prefectures along the coast. The minister has asked drivers to respect the \"complete driving ban\" in the departments of Finistère, Côtes-d\'Armor (Brittany) and Manche (Normandy), where a red alert has been announced.
