Adapt your speed

When driving in the vicinity of roadworks, you need to adapt your speed to the traffic situation in the area. There are no general speed limits for roads where roadworks are being undertaken. It is sometimes recommended that you keep a certain speed, and sometimes the speed limits are even reduced on roads where roadworks are being undertaken.

Road workers with red flags and maintenance vehicles

Road workers with red flags have the right to stop you. If a road worker holds up a red flag, then you need to stop until they have taken it down.

Maintenance vehicles are vehicles used in connection with roadworks. Maintenance vehicle drivers do not need to keep to traffic rules regarding their position on the road. You can therefore pass the vehicle on whichever side is most appropriate. You need to be extra careful when overtaking a maintenance vehicle as the driver will be primarily focused on their job rather than passing traffic.
