Determination of the route of dangerous goods transport: grant - single route determination
In order to ensure maximum safety during the transport of dangerous goods, special regulations apply to the transport of dangerous goods. Dangerous goods are substances and articles which, by their characteristics or condition, constitute a threat to public security and order during their transport and/or may damage the life and health of human beings and nature or important commons.
Certain dangerous goods require a provision of infrastructure in accordance with Paragraph 35 of the Regulation on the national and international transport of dangerous goods by road, railways and inland waters (GGVSEB). These are listed in Appendix 1 to GGVSEB. In principle, the transport of these dangerous goods must be carried out on the federal highways (except for some certain sections).
For the area outside the Bundesautobahn, transport pursuant to Section 35 (3) of the GGVSEB requires a single route determination by the competent authority. This shall be granted for a limited or unlimited number of journeys within a specified period of not more than three years.
The route can also be determined by general decree. Please refer to the further information in the service "Determination of the route of dangerous goods transport: grant - general order".
