Several recommended deviations

The damaged car positioned across the road forced traffic on a single lane for a long time. At 10:45, traffic was again on all tracks.

To avoid complicating traffic already completely saturated, deviations are put in place. From Toulouse and the A61, the recommended exit is that of Lézignan to take the direction of Perpignan south. For those coming from Montpellier, the exit of Sigean is obligatory.

Finally, on the side of Narbonne south, from Sigean, it is preferable to take the secondary road D6139 then the D6009 in the direction of Perpignan to circumvent the difficulty and recover the A9 at Leucate

It takes 1h25 journey on the axis Narbonne-Spain towards the border, instead of the usual 50 minutes.
