I'm not sure semi trailers can go in the Fourvière tunnel. Living near Paris and my family living near Avignon, I use A6 and A7 severall times in a year and i don't remember to have seen any semi trailer on this transition A6-A7.

Trucks over 7.5 tonnes may not enter the Fourvière tunnel at all. The A6 and A7 between Anses and Ternay is restricted for vehicles over 19 tonnes, as well as the whole northern périphérique.

To circumvent these restrictions, I'm pretty sure most drivers just take the A46, A346 and back on the A46. I remember when we went to France; we took the ring road and it was full of trucks.

That being said, any kind of ring road would be better than the current situation: the motorway instantly becomes a city road, boom, just like that. Right now, it just doesn't look anywhere near real life.

I'll gracefully wait for 2.20 ;)

This seems to be a truck route for Lyon? "no trucks thru that tunnel".

Not begging. Before checking up Monaco and trucking, I was actually against adding Monaco.
But after checking stuff, ingame and thru wikipedia, google etc...
I say it is possible.
But a garage, that is a big no.

People are talking about and want Monaco because it's a very unique place and to a lot of players it's more interesting than seeing a screen shot of an accurate placement of the "sortie" sign in the middle of no-where. Not saying I don't apprichiate accurate placements of mundane objects, just saying it's more fun to talk about. Don't be a kill joy, talk about Monaco is exciting and fun, just like the city IRL!

I think the only way to enter Monaco is by car by the way the roads and tunnels are built. You would probably get stuck in the tunnels and would have to call 112 to get help getting out. I thought Monaco would be good, but I Googled Monaco streetview and saw that the roads are really narrow and hilly, so I think that Monaco should be like one of those scenery countries like the Vatican.

dclark12553, normal delivery route 2011, to 1 of the delivery places on that street, the main is on the east side I think.

Since last year, trucks can skip a lot of those roads going down, new tunnel built, that shortens the road needed to drive.
I did link the new tunnel, the video does seem to skip a surface road between 2 tunnels tho.

A not so normal delivery or something:

To me, the whole Monaco thing kind of boggles my mind. It's like saying you would rather have Liechtenstein than the beautiful Autobahnen we've got right now. To each their own, I guess we play Promods for different reasons.

About the Fourvière tunnel, I used the French Wikisara (routes.wikia.com) as a source. It clearly states the tunnel is prohibited for vehicles over 7.5 tonnes.

If I may make a statement here, Monaco may be nice and dandy, but it's not high on our priorities list at all, if it is on our priorities list at all. So don't expect it on the short term.

Don't ask us for a release date; we don't know either.

MandelSoft, a possible long term list is fine.
That city, even the current trucking roads are a bit scary.
