Special Use of Public Roads (Straßensondernutzung) - Setting Up a Construction Site

Straßensondernutzung - Baustelleneinrichtung
Machine translation of the German page, 2026-09-15. The German original is binding.
Setting up construction sites (storage of building materials, containers, site trailers, toilets, construction fencing, together on one area) on public road land constitutes a special use of road land (Straßenlandsondernutzung). The building owner (Bauherr) or the construction company authorized by the building owner is required to apply for a special use permit (Sondernutzungserlaubnis). Note: At the same time, the company commissioned by the building owner needs a traffic-law order (verkehrsrechtliche Anordnung) from the road traffic authority (Straßenverkehrsbehörde); this is subject to a fee.
