C01

Closed in both directions to vehicles, riders and drovers

What it means

The road is closed to virtually all traffic, from both directions. Pedestrians are not covered.

What it requires of you

The empty sign is no mistake: precisely because there is no pictogram, it covers all the named categories at once. Wheeling a bicycle makes you a pedestrian, so you may pass.

Where it stands

At the entrance to the road or area to which the prohibition applies.

How far it applies

Applies from the sign until the end of the road or until a sign that lifts it.
