Paris to implement traffic control, requires Olympic Pass for restricted areas

France will begin implementing traffic control measures a week before the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony, which will take place on July 26, restricting access to certain areas by vehicles and pedestrians without a Games Pass.

The Pass Jeux is a digital QR code issued by the police, granting access to security perimeters around the Olympic venues, including those for para-cycling in Seine-Saint-Denis.

According to the French Tourism Development Agency, or Atout France, the restrictions will be implemented in two periods.

The first periods will last from July 18 to 13:00 July 26th, involving areas around the Seine River and sports venues. Children under 13, ticketed spectators, staff, and athletes are not subject to pass restrictions.

The second period, spanning from the end of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games to the end of the Paralympics on September 8, will involve four restricted perimeters around the competition sites.

The tourism agency said that it is not difficult to obtain a Games Pass, but it requires advanced application. Applicants can apply for free on the official website with valid ID or a travel document, and passes are non-transferable and valid only for the applicant. Those who have applied before the opening ceremony need not reapply again for the second phase.
