    Transportation

    Access to the town is easy with the highway between Valence and Grenoble, which can be taken for free between Valence and Romans, and furthermore with the TGV (high-speed train). There's a TGV station between Valence and Romans, and so it takes, in best of cases, two hours and twelve minutes to go from Paris to the station, and then add approximately five minutes with a car.
