What else you need

• Make sure that you have a customer number AND the Crosweb certificate for applying for exemptions online. Read: Creating an account for exemptions.

You have an exemption for LZV/EcoCombi transport. Read your exemption carefully and observe your obligations:

• You are only allowed to drive on roads that are coloured green on the Digital Road Map for Exemptions (DWO). You can see which roads these are by selecting ‘LZV’.
• You are required to be able to prove to any inspector that the road you are driving on has been approved for exceptional transport.
• Check beforehand whether you can genuinely take the route in practice.

Make sure nothing is in the way

Before you start driving, check the media and websites of the road authorities for news about potential restrictions on your route. For instance, check the website of the RWS (the Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management), vanAnaarBeter.nl. If it transpires that you will not have a clear run, plan your transport at another time or on a different day within the validity period of your exemption. 

Hindered during the journey nevertheless

If you encounter an obstacle during your journey that you did not expect, call Verkeerscentrum Nederland (the national traffic centre) to discuss it: +31(0)88-795350.
