Report traffic unsafe situation

What is it?

To increase traffic safety within built-up areas, there are 30 km/h areas. Speed bumps, narrows and narrow lanes are intended to slow down traffic. These are mainly residential areas, shopping streets, schools and other places where there are many pedestrians, cyclists and playing children.

Report it to the municipality if you see an unsafe traffic situation.

What to do?

You report to the municipality that you find a particular traffic situation unsafe. You can do this by sending an email to gemeentehuis@kerkrade.nlGeefwith the following information:

  • precise location
  • reason for your report

How long does it take?

Upon receipt, your complaint/suggestion will be handled by a specially formed Traffic Working Group. In this official working group, besides the chairman, secretary, lawyer and technician (all officials), the police and fire department are also represented. This is to obtain as broad a view as possible. The Traffic Working Group meets once every five weeks and gives advice on whether or not to take traffic measures (whether or not combined with traffic orders). If an official traffic decision is made, it is published in the City News and via Notices.
