Beginn einer Fahrradstraße — Start of a cycle street

Zeichen 244.1, StVO Anlage 2: vehicles other than bicycles and e-scooters may not use a Fahrradstraße unless a Zusatzzeichen allows it (commonly 'Anlieger frei' or 'Kfz frei'). Since 2020 the sign itself sets a 30 km/h limit for ALL traffic on it, cyclists included, and admitted motor traffic must slow further rather than endanger or obstruct cyclists — who may ride two abreast. Verified 2026-08-03.
