Special uses on public roads - applying for a permit and traffic order

Would you like to use a road for more than the normal use?

The use of a road beyond public use constitutes a special use and requires a permit.

The road construction authority decides on the granting of permission.

The following events, for example, fall under the term special use (list not exhaustive):

Erection of scaffolding, containers, cable bridges, tables, chairs
Construction of private lines
Storage of materials or parking of construction vehicles and machinery

Parallel to the permit, you must apply for a traffic order from the road traffic authority.

Responsible department

The road construction authority (in urban areas) is

for federal, state and district roads:
- for special use of the carriageway: the district office or, in urban districts, the municipal administration
- for the special use of pavements and car parks: the municipalities
for municipal roads: the municipality
Above a certain size, the municipalities can also be responsible for the road construction of federal, state and district roads for carriageways, footpaths and car parks in urban areas (i.e. in local thoroughfares):
- for federal roads: Municipalities with a population of 80,000 or more
- for state and district roads: Municipalities with a population of 30,000 or more.
