Road Attributes Database-WKD / Load Restrictions

Description

The road attribute database is a collection of databases each with a relevant road attribute which can be linked to the national road register (NWB). This can be road characteristics are such as, for example, the maximum speed, the width of the road or the presence of entries. A separate file is available for each of these road characteristics. In this road characteristics database, the load limits of all roads in the NWB are shown in so far as they are indicated in the traffic sign file. Load restrictions are common on bridges and quay walls, for example. The load limit is displayed by the road sign with RVV code C21. This sign means that vehicles and composite vehicles with a given total mass Legally, they do not have access to the road. This WKD file makes it easier to determine the correct route for a vehicle with a given total mass. The load restrictions have been taken over from the traffic sign file that is made available at NDW. Refurbishment WKD Road characteristics In the coming period, the road characteristics will be redesigned with the aim of more compact and uniform recording of data. This removes certain technical columns, such as NWB_version and Roadbox start date, due to their redundancy or lack of added value. The following WKD attributes will be updated: • Axle load restrictions • Height restrictions • Burden restrictions • Length restrictions • School zone • Traffic types • Road width • Road categorisation • Road narrowings Both variants of the custom data will be available next month on the usual platforms. Adjustments to WKD files In addition, in all WKD files, the Start Date and WVK_ID columns are inverted for uniform identification. This change will be implemented in autumn 2024.
