The environmental zone of Düsseldorf - Environmental lanes

To avoid diesel driving bans in the Düsseldorf city centre, the Clean Air Plan, adopted in February 2019, was supplemented by the introduction of lanes dedicated to electric vehicles.
On these sections, only certain vehicle types can drive under certain conditions.
On 15.04.2019 and 14.10.2019, three lanes for electric vehicles were set up. All electric or hybrid vehicles that have an E-license plate number or an E-Sticker are allowed to use these environmental lanes. Local public buses, taxis and car pools with at least 3 persons are also permitted. All other vehicles are prohibited from driving on these environmental lanes.

The streets concerned are Merowingerstraße towards the city centre, located between Kopernikusstraße and Ludwig-Hammers-Platz, and Prinz-Georg-Straße in both directions between Moltkestrasse and Bagelstrasse.
On 14.10.2019, a third environmental lane was introduced. It is divided into several sections, which will be completed shortly.

All lanes reserved for electric vehicles as well as possible deviations can be consulted in the free Green-Zones app. Same for possible exemptions and contact addresses.

Table overview of the environmental zone

Umweltspuren Düsseldorf (NOx) - Deutschland

Date of entry into effect of the zone:

15-04-2019

Type of environmental zone:

Ständig gültig

Not allowed to drive (temporarily):

The temporary driving bans depend on many factors, such as the age of the vehicle, EURO standard, the first and possibly second fuel type and many more. Sometimes current air values and the general weather situation play a role in connection with holidays and trade fairs. With the Green-Zones App you still keep an overview of the temporary driving bans. On a map of Europe you can see the current (red) and imminent (yellow) driving bans.

Not allowed to drive (permanently):

Permanent driving bans are very complex and partly depend on the type of vehicle, the Euronorm whether an environmental sticker or registration is available and how many people are sitting in the car. To display this correctly, please use our Green-Zones App.

Fines:

15 €

The Blue Badge for Diesel Restriction Zones

In Germany, the Blue Badge might be introduced in 2020. It is required to access diesel restriction zones.
In 2020, cities and communities will introduce driving restrictions for various EURO classes of diesel vehicles. Therefore, the Blue Badge becomes a need in order to distinguish older diesel vehicles and EURO classes as well as petrol vehicles without particle filter from vehicles with a lower emission of pollutants.

Vehicles which should get a Blue Badge
