Dike certificate


Would you like to drive on a dyke?

To do this, you need a special permit that allows you to drive on the Bremen dikes that are necessary for you. These journeys are only approved for the shortest route, i.e. from your main residence to your destination.

Requirements

You will only receive an annual permit

  • for visiting relatives (parents, children and siblings only)
  • for the maintenance of a plot of land
  • for the purpose of keeping horses
  • Other ? - please state your reason

Residents may drive on the dikes and paths without a special permit. In the event of an inspection, presentation of a valid identity card is sufficient.

The dykes are generally open to delivery traffic - except for the Hodenberg dyke. The vehicle registration document and delivery bill must be presented during an inspection.

In the case of weight-restricted dykes, a special permit for weight-restricted roads must be applied for if the permissible total weight is exceeded.

Guests of the inns located on the roads and paths mentioned, acquaintances, friends of residents / neighbors do not receive an exemption permit. However, you can obtain day passes for driving on the dykes from the police stations in Horn, Oberneuland, Borgfeld, Schwachhausen and Findorff.

An extension of the permit for horse farm visitors is only issued for one year.
