The following information concerning several CERN services may be of interest to pensioners:
Connecting to the CERN public WiFi
Please read the corresponding announcement.
Access to the CERN site
Access points
The access points are listed in Annex I to the document “Implementation measures, subsidiary document to Operational Circular No. 2 (Rev. 3)”.
Car access
IT tool for managing the registration of your vehicle
The tool is available at this address: cern.ch/vehicles.
With this new tool, from a computer or a smartphone, you can:
- select the vehicle you wish to use to access the CERN site,
- raise a ticket if you encounter difficulties in registering your vehicle,
- consult a list of frequently asked questions.
You can also add or remove vehicle from your list, going to the Registration Service in Building 55.
N.B.: The rules of Operational Circular No. 2 concerning the number of vehicles authorised to enter the site simultaneously and parking conditions (maximum five-day limit) continue to apply.
In addition, please note that according to information and experience collected since then
- pensioners can register several vehicles (although in contradiction with Operational Circular No. 2 (Rev. 3))
- the tool cern.ch/vehicles can only be used by holders of a CERN informatics account. If you do not have or no longer have one, you should open a so-called lighrweight account.
If you have any comments please use the contact form.
