Duplex tunnel

Off in a couple of weeks to South of France was thinking of going A26 but fed up being held up at Lyon anyone any experience of going via Paris and using the Duplex tunnel think it has a 2m height restriction are we ok at that margin?
Cheers

the FF is just a few cm' s lower than that so if your van is higher than the FF then it wont go under.. ... - .- -.

The telepéage gates (using a transponder) on autoroutes are generally 2m and I use them without problem.

As Stan say, if you are taking your van and it is above 2m then that's another matter. John

The FFRR isn comfortably under 2m Thumbs Up

I'm another one who regularly uses the 2m restricted telepeage lanes.

It also fits in regular height on the tunnel with the suspension lowered
