Slovakia: a suspension of the HGV ban on November 17
At the request of ČESMAD Slovakia, a general exemption from the HGV ban has been granted on the November 17, which is a public holiday ( Struggle for Freedom and Democracy Day).
The exemption applies to all HGVs traveling on motorways, first class roads and roads with international traffic, arriving in Slovakia from some neighboring countries, whose destination (e.g. company headquarters or the place of unloading) is located in Slovakia.
Please be advised that that no exemption has been granted on November 1, which means that the driving ban is in effect as usual from 00:00 to 10:00 PM.
