Authorisations for access - Pentagon low-traffic neighbourhood

Access with a vehicle to a pedestrian zone, restricted area, school street or filter is possible via an authorisation which has to be asked in advance.

The filters, both retractable posts and ANPR cameras, which prohibit traffic by a C3 traffic sign, make access to the street impossible (24 hours a day, 7 days a week).

Access is only possible for emergency services (police, fire brigade,...), public transport, taxis, maintenance and waste collection services.

For the filters with a retractable post, these restricted access zones or school streets are also accessible to residents, traders, institutions and owners of garages in the street, provided that authorisation is requested. These filters are equipped with number plate recognition technology and they can also be activated with a code.
