Re: Crossing the river in the morning

There's only 1 major bridge "mont Blanc bridge linking the left and right part of Geneva. There are 2 other bridges (Coulouvronières and Pont Butin) but they suppose a big détour. This canton is hesitating more than 40 years about building an additional bridge/tunnel to drive traffic between the 2 sides of this town. Unfortunately this project was refused and definitely buried in the last votations, after 3 attempts. I guess if there were americans here in the goverment, this link would have been built for ages now, and it would the most profitable income source assuming a 2 or 3 Francs fees for every vehicle crossing the lake.
Anyway, the solution is to avoid crossing Mont-blanc Bridge between 7H15 AM till 9HAM and back from 16H30 till 18H00. It's a nightmare if you are driving your car.
Othe solutions, take a moto/scooter if you could do that which is the fastest way. Depending of your trajectory (assuming short distances) you could take your bike (not very pratical when it is too cold or heavy rains).
If you plan to take the public transport, they are crowded during the rush hours, but they are too frequent in Geneva . I will advice you to take a TPG monthly subscription if you plan to take buses and trams every working-day
