If some advocate the train for ecological reasons, it is not always advantageous in terms of transport time. Thus, the Toulouse-Clermont-Ferrand journey takes 7 hours 05 minutes by train compared to 4 hours 10 minutes by car. That’s nearly three hours saved! On the other hand, we can think before switching on the ignition to make a Nice-Bordeaux, since it takes 8:25 a.m. by car and 9:15 a.m. by train. Similarly, the difference between Grenoble and Lyon is only 10 minutes: 1h15 by car and 1h25 by train.

There are some 152 kilometers of traffic jams on average every day to enter Lille, with a peak around 9 a.m…. Even if telework reshuffles the cards, access to large cities, job centers, is a real brain teaser.

If the carpooling data has been skewed by the health crisis – which has immobilized employees at home or made them fear contamination by sharing a vehicle – it seems however that thanks to transport problems, such as strikes, in January 2020, combined with government measures to promote it, carpooling is gaining ground. The habits acquired could therefore be transformed into new modes of mobility.
