Classified petite-ville, Pontivy sits in 56 in a region where driving combines inland bocage, small-town crossings and access to fishing ports. The expressways RN12 to Brest and RN165 to Lorient are the backbone, completed by a very dense departmental network. Westerly winds regularly hit 100 km/h on capes and estuaries, requiring caution and a firm grip on exposed bridges. Driving in Pontivy quickly exposes drivers to access to medical centres, town halls and weekly markets, classic parking and tight-quarters manoeuvre situations.
