A75 autoroute
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The A75 is an autoroute (motorway) in France.
Known also as la Méridienne, it is a developmental project with the aim of speeding up and reducing the cost of car travel from Paris southwards, and apart from the Millau Viaduct, it is entirely free for the 340 km (210 miles) between Clermont-Ferrand and Pezenas, with extension planned to Béziers.
South of St. Flour there are excellent views of the Garabit viaduct.
The Millau Viaduct carries the road over the Tarn River. It was constructed under a government contract with the Eiffage group, effective for 75 years. Eiffage will collect tolls at agreed upon rates: in 2006 for cars these are €5.10, excluding the peak months of July and August (€6.80).
