Il semble clair pour tout le monde que le trafic que le Mont-Blanc n'a pu absorber en plus de deux ans de fermeture s'est fatalement déplacé vers d'autres points de passage alpins, à commencer par le Saint-Gothard, aujourd'hui fermé à son tour, et ensuite vers le Brenner, le Tarvis et tout l'arc alpin qui, en résumé, a assimilé ce surplus de trafic qui passait auparavant par le Mont-Blanc.
It is a link of cause and effect: it seems clear to everybody that the mass of traffic that the Mont Blanc has not been able to cater for during the two and a half years or so since it closed has inevitably shifted to other Alpine passes, starting with the St Gotthard itself, which in turn is now closed, and then the Brenner and the Tarvisio and the whole Alpine arc, which, in short, has absorbed the surplus traffic that used to go through the Mont Blanc tunnel before it was closed.
