From: Effusive crises at Piton de la Fournaise 2014–2015: a review of a multi-national response model
a The gate at the head of the trail down into the caldera at the Pas de Bellecombe entry point between and during effusive crises. b;c Congestion on the Route du Volcan at the Plaine des Sables around 06:40 (local time) on 1 August 2015: the second day of the July–August 2015 eruption. After these photos were taken, parking next to the road was banned and cars were allowed to ascend from La Plaines des Cafres in groups of 100, as space became available in designated parking areas. A mini-bus shuttle service was also added from bases in La Plaines des Cafres and Tampon. This caused severe traffic and parking congestion, but no doubt a short economic boom, for the town of La Plaines des Cafres
