BDifficulty 2/5

Can a speed limit below the general limit be established with appropriate signs both on a through-road in a built-up area and on a motorway?

Correct answer

Yes, both on through-roads in built-up areas and on motorways.

Yes, on both. Article 47 provides for specific limits based on road characteristics and temporary limits when conditions justify them. For through-roads in built-up areas, article 50.5 allows lowering the general limit by agreement between the municipal authority and road owner, with specific signs. This is not restricted to either road type. Always adapt speed to conditions even if the posted limit is unchanged.
