As a major touring event, the Tour de France Femmes with Zwift has implemented an ambitious sustainable mobility plan, aiming for a gradual reduction in the number of vehicles and the use of alternative modes of transportation.
Organisation
- 100 % of light vehicles are hybrid
- 100% of the organisation’s XPO Logistics trucks will work with biofuel
- Organization of training courses on environmentally responsible driving for drivers in the race convoy, as well as awareness-raising sessions for other drivers (caravan, media).
Accredited vehicles
- No permanent accreditation for a vehicle carrying only one person.
Coming to the Tour de France in green mode
- Carpooling service set up on all stages
- Bicycle parking on each stage start next to the Fan Zone
- Use of alternative means of transportation: shuttles are chartered and people are encouraged to use gondolas and ski lifts in the mountains whenever possible.
- Special offers on public transport and regional train to get to certain stages
- Cartography of public transport and train station near the route
