Cologne's environmental zone
Cologne’s downtown area was be declared an “environmental zone”. This means that only vehicles sporting one of the stickers for Emissions Groups 2 to 4 are allowed to enter the downtown area (www.stadt-koeln.de).
Drivers can get these stickers at photokina (21st – 26th September 2010) upon presentation of their vehicle documents.
The Koelnmesse exhibition centre will remain accessible for all types of vehicles, even if they do not bear one of the aforementioned stickers.
The attached graphic shows all of the routes for driving to and from the exhibition centre.
However, only vehicles that bear the pertinent sticker are allowed to drive outside of these routes (to get to downtown Cologne, for example).
Trade fair visitors from Germany and abroad who wish to come to Cologne in an appropriately equipped vehicle will receive a sticker that allows them to drive into the environmental zone after applying at
