Low-traffic zone
Certain streets in the historic city centre are car-free (pedestrianised) or traffic-calmed at specific times. There are three (colour) zones, each with specific regulations:
- Zone orange (Steenstraat) is completely car-free between 1pm and 6pm every day.
- Zone yellow (Katelijnestraat and adjacent streets between Ankerplein and Mariastraat to Heilige Geeststraat) is traffic-calmed every day between 1 pm and 6 pm.
- The streets in zone green are traffic-calmed between 1pm and 6pm every Saturday and Sunday.
Difference between car-free and traffic-calmed?
Car-free: Car-free (pedestrianised) refers to a complete ban on motorised transport.
Traffic-calmed: Traffic-calmed means that some specific target groups, including visitors staying in the car-free area, are allowed access to these streets under certain conditions and subject to filling in an online form. This is not applicable to De Drie Koningen since the holiday rentals are not located in a car-free or traffic-calmed area.
Enforcement is done by ANPR cameras based on number plate registration. Anyone driving through a car-free or traffic-calmed street will be fined.
Is Acadia located in a car-free or traffic-calmed street?
- Although Acadia is centrally located in the city centre, the holiday home is not located in a car-free or traffic-calmed area.
- For this reason, there is basically no difference between car-free and traffic-calmed for our guests.
- Since you can reach holiday home Acadia without any car-free or traffic-calmed streets, our guests should therefore not register their license plate.
