Applying for a special use permit for advertising in public spaces

Source: BUS Rheinland-Pfalz

Advertising outside enclosed spaces or in public areas constitutes outdoor advertising.

If you want to advertise something outside enclosed spaces or in public areas, for example by putting up posters, this constitutes a use that goes beyond the normal use of public space (common use). This is a special use for which you must apply for a permit (special use permit). You must have the special use permit before you start advertising.

Guidelines of the Kaiserslautern Road and Traffic Office for the erection of outdoor advertising structures:

Experience has shown that many village, club and private festive events take place every year. The organizers, most of whom work on a voluntary basis, are keen to advertise these events.

Posters and banners are put up in many places. Unfortunately, some of the "advertising experts" overshoot the mark, as not everything that promises to increase festival sales is permitted.

Advertising on public roads is restricted by several laws. These include, in particular, Section 33 of the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), Section 52 (3) of the State Building Regulations (LBauO), Section 9 (6) of the Federal Trunk Roads Act (FStrG) and Sections 23 and 23 of the State Roads Act (LStrG).

According to these regulations, advertising installations are not permitted outside local thoroughfares, as outdoor advertising installations of any kind along federal, state and district roads are particularly likely to impair the safety and ease of traffic. Therefore, only signs necessary for the flow of traffic may be erected, which does not include private signs.

It is expressly forbidden to erect advertising or private signs in conjunction with official traffic signs (signs) or facilities (e.g. traffic lights, delineators), even in built-up areas. It goes without saying that traffic signs must not be covered by advertising signs.

We would like to point out that violations of the aforementioned prohibitions constitute administrative offenses and can be punished with a fine. We therefore ask you to comply with the regulations.

If you have any questions regarding the installation of advertising structures, please contact your local road maintenance department

(Tel. 06371-9248-0) or the Kaiserslautern Road and Traffic Office (Tel. 0631/3631-171) for information.
