Overview
- A preliminary injunction from the Munich Administrative Court requires reinstating 30 km/h on Landshuter Allee after the city restored 50 km/h in January.
- Two residents won the emergency ruling, with judges saying the city's justification lacked a reliable basis and must prioritize health after years of NO2 exceedances.
- The court flagged 2026 forecast uncertainty from planned works—Dachauer Straße bridge repairs, tunnel weight restrictions, and Donnersberger Brücke measures—that could trigger congestion and higher emissions.
- Mayor Dieter Reiter says the decision is not final and will keep 50 km/h in place for now while the city considers an appeal within two weeks and refers the issue to the city council.
- The Deutsche Umwelthilfe set a short deadline for immediate compliance and threatened court enforcement and an oversight complaint if 30 km/h signs are not promptly reinstalled.
