Correct answer

At 80 km/h.

When only one normal-direction lane remains, the limit is 80 km/h, or lower if applicable, and dipped headlights are required day and night. When several normal-direction lanes remain, their general limits apply: the contraflow lane does not automatically impose 80 km/h on all of them. Do not enter the separated opposing lanes.
