The Messe München and the ICM are located directly on
the A94 motorway and can be reached using the "Feldkirchen-West" (Exit
No. 6) or "München-Riem" (Exit No. 5) exits. A dynamic traffic-guidance
system regulates the flow of traffic, guiding logistics vehicles and
trade-fair visitors to the nearest available parking area at the
trade-fair center.
Ban on truck/lorry traffic in Munich As part of the city of Munich's clean-air
initiative, through traffic of trucks/lorries weighing more than 3.5 tons is no
longer permitted in the city as of February 1, 2008. The ban concept calls for
through traffic of trucks/lorries to be diverted to the A99 motorway. As a
rule, roadblocks directly at the city limits will not be used. Instead, traffic
will be diverted or rerouted by warning signs in outlying areas, by prohibitive
signs within the city limits (sign 253 of the German road-traffic regulations
with the addition "Lieferverkehr frei" (delivery vehicles only) and by
detour signs indicating the way to the nearest motorway. Effect on vehicles making deliveries to the trade-fair center:
The vehicle ban expressly permits delivery vehicles whose point of origin or
destination is within Munich.
As a result, deliveries to and from the Munich
Trade Fair Centre are not affected by the vehicle ban. However, trucks/lorries
whose destinations are outside of Munich may not take the A94 motorway toward Munich when leaving
the trade-fair center because doing so would make them "through
traffic".
Low emission zone Munich: Emissions sticker required to drive in downtown Munich
As of October 1, 2008, the city of Munich is a low emission zone.
So-called Emissions Stickers (red, yellow or green) are required to
drive in the low emission zone. This also applies to anyone visiting
the city. Beginning in October 2008, all streets located inside the
"Mittlerer Ring" are considered to be in the low emission zone, for
which a sticker is required. The "Mittlerer Ring" itself is not in the
low emission zone.
Due to this change, Messe München International and DEKRA have set up a service
point for exhibitors and visitors. Emissions stickers may be purchased at DEKRA
for EUR 5.00.
