The issue is satnav related I think. Follow the signs & you can’t really go wrong. If you stick to route around main ring road you won’t need a Crit air sticker. If you go the imo better route going south on left of river you will need a sticker.

I have never understood the so-called problems with going via Rouen, and have done it trouble-free for years. The roads are all well signposted, follow signs for Le Mans if you are heading west or south-west, if you are going south via Evreux/Chartres/Orleans it is simpler to go through the tunnel at Rouen and then take the road towards Pont de L`Arche (the D6015). Don`t let it worry you, it is very easy.

Back in the day, coming from Calais / Boulogne, all that was signposted from the north was Paris or Le Havre. Same coming from S going N, no signs for Calais.

And then there's the old joke, not heard it for a while.

'The French ordered new signs for Rouen. When they arrived, they were the wrong ones, but they put them up anyway.'
