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

If you wish to build or work on, over or under a roadway, you must first check who the owner of this roadway is. Public roads may be under the province’s management. You must then apply to the province for a permit or exemption. Such construction works and activities include bridges, viaducts, cables, a driveway or an event. An example of such an event is a cycling event.

You apply to the province for the permit or exemption.

The conditions include:

  • The roadway is managed by the province.
  • Your construction work or activity does not present a risk to traffic. 
  • Your construction work or activity does not negatively affect the roadway or the verge.
