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

Are you planning to carry out work or organise an event on or close to a provincial road? In that case, you have to apply for an environmental permit from the provincial authorities.

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.

This is how you apply for a permit:

  • Go to the online Omgevingsloket (in Dutch). This is the service counter for environmental and planning permits.

  • Do the permit check.

  • You will be told whether you need to apply for an environmental permit. You can do this right away.

  • Log in.

You can submit the notification or apply for an environmental permit from the provincial authorities via the online Omgevingsloket (in Dutch). This is the service counter for environmental and planning permits.

Costs may be associated with processing an application for an environmental permit. These fees are set annually by the provincial authorities.

The provincial authorities will make a decision on your permit within 8 weeks. If the provincial authorities deem it necessary, they can extend this period by a maximum of 6 weeks.

Do you disagree with the decision of the provincial authorities on a permit? You can object within 6 weeks of the decision. You do not agree with the outcome thereof? In that case, you can appeal through the courts. And appeal once more after that, if necessary.
