Tools for this tag

The tag zone:traffic=NL:rural describes that a road or path is located outside the built-up area (buiten de bebouwde kom, bubeko) according to the traffic regulations of the European part of the Netherlands (Reglement verkeersregels en verkeerstekens 1990, RVV 1990). This implies certain default traffic rules apply on that road or path.

The end of a built-up area and therefore the start of zone:traffic=NL:rural is indicated by traffic sign H2, a blue rectangular sign with the placename in white crossed out in white with a red stripe (shown in the infobox). This sign can be added as extra information as a node with traffic_sign=city_limit.

How to tag

See also: NL:Tagging van Nederlandse wegen

Add zone:traffic=NL:rural to the ways of roads and paths outside the built-up area.

The only correct values of zone:traffic=* in the Netherlands are zone:traffic=NL:urban (binnen de bebouwde kom) and zone:traffic=NL:rural (buiten de bebouwde kom). Other 'zones' are indicated by different tags:

Situation Tagging
Motorway (autosnelweg) outside the built-up area
e.g. standard national through road (nationale stroomweg, SW120)		 zone:traffic=NL:rural
motorway=yes implied by highway=motorway or highway=motorway_link
Motorroad (autoweg) outside the built-up area
e.g. standard regional through road (regionale stroomweg, SW100)		 zone:traffic=NL:rural
motorroad=yes
- Non-motorway/non-motorroad outside the built-up area without signed speed limit
e.g. standard rural distributor road (gebiedsontsluitingsweg, GOW80)		 zone:traffic=NL:rural
maxspeed=80
maxspeed:type=NL:rural (optional)
Non-motorway/non-motorroad outside the built-up area closed (met geslotenverklaring) for all slow traffic
e.g. standard rural distributor road (gebiedsontsluitingsweg, GOW80)		 zone:traffic=NL:rural
horse=no
carriage=no
hand_cart=no
agricultural=no
bicycle=no
mofa=no
moped=no
Priority road (voorrangsweg) outside the built-up area zone:traffic=NL:rural
priority_road=designated
60 km/h zone (zone 60) outside the built-up area
e.g. standard rural access road (erftoegangsweg, ETW60)		 zone:traffic=NL:rural
maxspeed=60
maxspeed:type=NL:zone60 or zone:maxspeed=NL:60 (optional)

Note that maxspeed:type=NL:rural and zone:traffic=NL:rural have a different meaning. maxspeed:type=NL:rural is a road with the default rural speed limit (80 km/h), while zone:traffic=NL:rural is used on all roads outside the built-up area.

Possible speed limits

The scheme below indicates which speed limits for motor vehicles road operators are allowed to set outside the built-up area, based on the Uitvoeringsvoorschriften BABW inzake verkeerstekens. This may be helpful for mapping. Beware: these guidelines are occasionally violated in practice (usually for short segments).
