Le Grésivaudan Community of Communes

As part of its tourism and mountain policies, and in conjunction with SMMAG’s mobility policy, Le Grésivaudan has launched a project to overhaul its tourist transport and mobility offer for the entire region. While public transport for leisure and tourism purposes is already in place, the aim is to improve this offer:

• provide public transport that is better adapted to the needs of visitors and residents alike
• work on carbon-free mobility,
• add mobility-related services: lockers, reservation solutions, creation of ski passes and package products such as ski passes + transport, etc.

The mission, which will continue into 2023, aims to adjust the existing transport offer, and initiate the implementation of other mobility solutions. Changes to the mobility offer may be implemented as early as summer 2023 on an experimental basis.

Seasonal summer routes (“Destination fraîcheur”) and winter routes (“Destination Neige” or “skibus”) organized by the region connect major tourist sites with the urban areas and the Grésivaudan valley.are organized by the region to link major tourist sites with the urban areas and the Grésivaudan valley, and to encourage mobility among Grésivaudan residents and local day-trippers/tourists. In conjunction with SMMAG, Le Grésivaudan has adapted these lines for both seasons, to best meet the needs of users and tourist destinations. For the summer season, a replacement line has been introduced for the Funiculaire (closed since the bad weather at the end of 2021), and a reduced fare has been introduced for access to community facilities served by Destination Nature lines. For the winter season, creation of a Grenoble departure point for routes to Prapoutel – Les 7 Laux and Chamrousse, to encourage Grenoble residents – the majority of customers at these resorts – to leave their cars behind, and simplification of fares (€1).
