Transport links
In the north-western municipality there is a narrow bend in the river, over which a railway line runs - largely underground - and spans the Ain with the Viaduc de Cize-Bolozon . This railway line was modernized from 2005 to 2010 for TGV traffic from Paris to Geneva . To the east of the viaduct is the Cize-Bolozon train station , where TER trains stop. The station consists of two tracks on a central platform so that trains can cross each other.
