Speed map

This map contains speed limits for all roads in the National Road Database (NWB).

Description from Rijkswaterstaat: "Since 2022, the characteristics Trees, Entrances, Comb Borders, Parking Points, Parking Boxes, Traffic Center, Traffic Types, Road Width, Road Categorization and Road Narrowings have been added to the database as a csv file."

"The possible speeds that can be entered are 5, 15, 20, 30 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 130 km/h, N/A and unknown. The speeds only apply to roads that are open to car traffic. On cycle paths, footpaths and other roads that are not open to car traffic, the speed is unknown. This also applies to the ferry connections. The file provides variable maximum speeds with a start time and an end time. These apply in particular to motorways. Outside this period with the indicated start time and end time, an alternative speed applies. So, for example, between 6:00 and 19:00, 100 km per hour applies and beyond that, the maximum speed is 120 km per hour.

Traffic decisions, via the Knowledge and Exploitation Centre for Official Publications (KOOP), are used to detect and process changes in speed limits.

Disclaimer:

There are still a number of roads on "unknown" while here actually the maximum speed does not apply (footpaths and cycle paths for example).

Within a tool of the National Road Traffic Data Portal (NDW) we keep track of the speeds. The map that the NDW offers can be viewed via: https://road characteristics.ndw.nu/road characteristics/road sections/323165013/characteristics/maximum speed. You can also download the data in shapefile format at https://opendata.ndw.nu/.

To unlock the speeds within our Eindhoven Open Data portal, we use a service from Rijkswaterstaat: https://geo.rijkswaterstaat.nl/arcgis/rest/services/GDR/maximum_speeds_roads/FeatureServer/0
