Province of Gelderland: applying for a permit for construction near a provincial road

Do you want to carry out groundwork, construction work or other work on or along a road? You need a permit to do so. For example, for digging, damming or draining the verge or ditch. Or constructing structures on or along the road. If you want to build or work on, over or under a road, first check who owns this road. The province has public roads under its own management, if this is the case you must apply to the province for a permit.

The conditions include: The road is managed by the province. Since this work makes changes to the road, we want to test whether this work affects the safety, use and maintenance of the road.
