No-Stopping Zone Marzahn-Hellersdorf
Overview of applications, costs and signs for temporary no-stopping zones in Berlin.
Applying for a no-stopping zone (Halteverbot) in Marzahn-Hellersdorf costs a minimum of € 21 and takes 4 weeks. The Streets and Green Spaces Office (Straßen- und Grünflächenamt) of Marzahn-Hellersdorf district office processes your application by email. Here you'll find all the important contacts and steps for your order.
How to Apply
You submit your application by email to the Streets and Green Spaces Office of Marzahn-Hellersdorf district office. The authority issues the no-stopping zone order under StVO § 46 Abs. 1 Nr. 11. You only receive the traffic order and must arrange the signs separately.
How to apply for the no-stopping zone:
1. Send an informal email to sondernutzung_ag@ba-mh.berlin.de
2. Specify the exact location and desired duration
3. State the reason for the no-stopping zone (for example, moving)
4. Wait for the authority's response with the order
Important points for your application:
• Give the exact address and street section
• Specify start and end dates of the restriction
• Explain the reason for the no-stopping zone
• Provide your contact details for follow-up questions
Costs
The minimum fee is € 21 for the traffic order. Processing takes about 4 weeks from receipt of your application. The actual costs depend on the scope and duration of the no-stopping zone.
These factors affect the costs:
• Length of the restricted street section
• Duration of the restriction (days or weeks)
• Number of traffic signs required
• Special circumstances or complex traffic situations
Additional costs arise for the traffic signs and their installation. You arrange this through a construction site safety company or sign service.
Signs
The Streets and Green Spaces Office only issues the traffic order. You must obtain and install traffic signs 283/286 yourself. The signs must be in place 72 hours before the restriction becomes valid.
Hire a construction site safety company or sign service in Marzahn-Hellersdorf. These companies know the regulations and install the signs on time. You can also ask moving companies for recommendations.
Common mistakes with no-stopping zone signs:
• Signs installed too late (less than 72 hours beforehand)
• Wrong traffic signs used or poorly readable
• Signs not positioned correctly
• Order not carried as proof of authorization
Moving
A no-stopping zone makes sense when you can't find parking space for the moving truck in front of your home. In densely built areas of Marzahn-Hellersdorf, the no-stopping zone can save time and stress. Plan at least 5 to 6 weeks lead time.
Consider the 4-week processing time plus the 72-hour lead time for the signs. Measure the required length on site and add some buffer. A 7.5-ton moving truck needs about 12 to 15 meters of parking space.
For smaller moves with a van, a normal parking space is often enough. Check beforehand whether there's enough space in front of your old and new home.
