Public transport events: permission
A permit is required for events where public roads are used more than usual due to the number of participants or their behaviour. Permits include cycling, cycling, race, inline skater races, triathlon competitions, classic car or orientation rides or similar events.
The responsibility lies with the county and the city. If the event goes beyond the district of the competent authority, the Lower Saxony State Authority for Road Construction and Transport is responsible for the approval of the event.
Information on:
- the nature and occasion of the event
- Venue and date
- the duration of the event
- the number of participants / vehicles
- the route
- the start-up method
A route plan and proof of a completed organiser's liability insurance must be attached.
Permission is subject to a fee.
The application must be submitted approximately two months before the intended date.
Timely application is essential as the bodies affected by the event (lower road authorities, the police and other bodies) must be involved. The concerns, conditions or indications expressed in the course of this consultation procedure (e.g. on local construction sites) will be taken into account by the competent authority when issuing the permit in order to allow the event to proceed smoothly.
