Overview

  • Sixteen blue signs line about 400 meters of Störmthal’s Dorfstraße, imposing a two-hour limit on marked bays.
  • The measure seeks to redirect lake visitors from the village street to designated paid parking near Störmthaler See.
  • The local council initiated the time cap but had proposed just one sign at the entrance and one at the exit of the zone.
  • Großpösna’s mayor cites the Straßenverkehrsordnung for individually marking each bay, with installation costing about €5,000.
  • The municipality will monitor parking patterns for one to two months before deciding on adjustments, noting the signs could be reused elsewhere.
