SPEED LIMIT

The speed limit on the New Europe Bridge is 60 km/h. Lower speed limits apply near toll booths, as well as temporarily during road repairs or during special events or incidents. In the event of an accident and/or traffic accident, call 112 - the single European emergency telephone number.

STOPPING AND PARKING

For your safety, stopping and parking on the bridge is prohibited. In case you wish to stop, you can use one of the two free parking areas for cars with a capacity of 14 spaces each immediately before the toll booth, in both directions.

In the parking area you also have easy access to service facilities such as public toilets, an ATM and a 24-hour bank branch.

WORK AREAS

In the event of repair work on the road surface of the bridge facility and its adjacent infrastructure, special work zones will be created, marked with temporary traffic organization.

In this case, you must:

• Pay attention to the special signage placed before the work zone, which informs you in advance of its location and the requirements for driving in it.
• Observe the speed limit in the zone.
• Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you.
• Do not overtake near or within the work zone.
• Be careful when vehicles or machinery enter or exit the work zone.

To have a safe trip, it is important to prepare properly. Before you set off, make sure you have checked the following:

• The condition of your vehicle (oil, fuel, tire pressure, coolant, wipers, etc.).
• Check the weather conditions.
• Be aware of the traffic situation and, if possible, travel during the day.
• Make sure your vehicle is equipped with a first aid kit, warning triangle, fire extinguisher, reflective vest, flashlight, wet wipes/paper, water or anything else that may be useful to you in case of need.
