In a bicycle road, bicycle traffic generally has priority . The motorized traffic is only approved with additional signs and must be taken into account. This means that the bicycle traffic determines the pace , even if speed 30 applies. Cyclists are allowed to drive side by side , cars must keep a minimum distance of 1.50 meters .

All residents and visitors keep the opportunity to reach houses and parking spaces by car.
