Operational status following the organisation of the Olympic Games in Paris
From mid-April to the end of October, various stages such as the installation of infrastructure on the Olympic sites, the conduct of sports events, the movement of athletes and visitors, the dismantling and release of traffic axes will form a long period of disruption. During this time, the summer will be dense and traffic-intensive. We are therefore reorganizing our activities in order to better alleviate all the restrictions and we offer you the operational status below, which we will keep regularly updated.

Operational status of the consequences of the organisation of the Games on express deliveries
Our express partners are continuing to operate during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. For both businesses and private customers, deliveries and collections in Paris and the Paris region will be restricted by the measures taken by the government for this period.
During these events, many roads will be in restricted access zones. These are perimeters set up by the Préfecture de Police for security reasons.
3 types of perimeter have been defined, from the most restrictive to the least restrictive:
- The Red Zone: total exclusion zones near the Olympic and Paralympic sites, where collection and delivery will be impossible,
- The Blue Zone: partial exclusion zones in the Blue Zone, i.e. zones to which our partners will have access for delivery or collection during specific time slots,
- The Free Zone: areas where delivery and collection can take place as usual.
These zones will change on a daily basis depending on the day and the event. For this reason, delivery times may be extended.
What impact will the Games have on express delivery times?
- Premium deliveries before 09:00 will be delivered before 12:00
- Premium deliveries before 12:00 will be made before the end of the day
- Deliveries will be made within 24/48 hours (the equivalent standard delivery time)
- Standard deliveries can be extended by 48 hours
We strongly advise you to arrange collection the day before at the latest.
For imports, an additional 24/48 hours will also be required.
On opening and closing days, especially Friday 26 July, deliveries and collections will be very difficult in Paris and the Paris region.
