German summer driveing ban

Driveing ban
from the 1st july to the 31st aug,
have found a link HERE

ALSO this one HERE

HOPE that this is of use

can’t understand why they specifically haven’t issued a map this year and say you must plot it yourself (the old one showed affected roads in red) maybe they dropped a borlick with it somehow?

there is a map but you have to write off and pay for it
at present i have mot found a map, if i do ,then it will be posted here,

sorry for my ignorance, but do these bans apply to just specific routes and other routes can be taken ?

yes you are banned from useing the roads
as shown in the guide, but any other route is
okay to use, the problem is that when its holiday
time in europe the roads are full of cars,&caravans
along with thew coaches,you will need a good
atlas in the case of GERMANY BUY a
FALK BUS and TRUCKER ATLAS costs
€50 ;BUT IS THE BEST ONE AROUND
it has bridge heights, banned routes for HAZ
loads, also shows on the motorways where all
the parking areas are ,plus maps of citys and the surrouding countrys,

This link to the swiss site does not show these saturday bans for germany, does that mean the site is not up to date ?

truckinfo.ch/index.php5

I will be doing a fair bit of haz, so thanks for the info.

NO not at all the swiss site will only have basic info
on other countrys you do need to use a site from
that country which will be better informened,

here is the address where you can
send off for a map of the routes
which are not allowed to be driven
on in the summer holiday ban

the map costs a total of €3.09
plus the postage so i would
send them either a e-mail or phone
and ask what the costs will be when
it is sent to the UK;
HERE below is the address
yes you can write in english
to them as they will have some
one who speaks english,

when you speak to some one
ask for the
MAP FOR THE LORRIES
DUE TO THE HOLIDAY BAN
in JULY &AUG or try the
german mentioned below

AUS WEICH STRECKEN KARTE
FUR LKWS

please remember that traffic will be heavy and
if the motorway gets blocked you can use the bundesstrassen, (country) roads ,butyou need a good map to ensure that you can get through
when carrying HAZ or a high -wide load,
The best map for GERMANY is
THE FALK BUS & TRUCKER ATLAS;
with all bridges marked plus the banned
routes for HAZ-ADR loads,

Is there similar summer holiday bans for france, italy, spain etc.?

have a look at the sticky caller euro
drivers info point there are links here which show
the bans and yes in summer MANY EU
country have summer bans in place which restrict
the lorrys,
