Geneva road closures put back

The major road closures around Geneva’s main train station have been put back.

It was originally announced the roads each side of Cornavin would close this spring to allow work to start on the extension of the station.

But the Department of Infrastructure says the closures won’t happen until summer – or even in the Autumn. 

The delay is due to more preparatory work needing to be done.
