Important Information About Denmark
Driving bans and accessibility
In Denmark, there are no general nationwide driving bans for freight traffic on Sundays and public holidays. As a result, transport can, in principle, take place year-round without nationwide weekend restrictions.
In Copenhagen, however, additional rules apply to heavy freight traffic. In the city center, there is a driving ban for trucks with a gross vehicle weight exceeding 18 metric tons. Additionally, between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., there is a nighttime parking ban for trucks and buses with a gross vehicle weight of 3.5 metric tons or more.
Special circumstances
For shipments that exceed the maximum permitted dimensions or weights, additional conditions apply in Denmark. This includes, among other things, vehicles wider than 2.55 meters, longer than 18.75 meters or 16.50 meters, or vehicle combinations with five or more axles weighing more than 44 metric tons.
For this type of exceptional transport, prior permitting may be required. Additionally, on public holidays and under special circumstances, additional route and time restrictions may apply. Therefore, planning must take into account the dimensions, weight, and chosen route.
