Report a streetlight malfunction

If you notice a malfunction, damage, or any other issue with traffic signs or traffic control devices, you can report it to the appropriate authority. This includes, for example, traffic signs that are damaged, twisted, obscured, dirty, illegible, or missing. Problems with traffic infrastructure such as barriers, bollards, guide posts, or traffic lights can also be reported, depending on local resources.

It is especially important to report an issue if the problem could compromise traffic safety. This can happen, for example, if a traffic sign is no longer recognizable, a sign is missing, or a traffic control device has been damaged. The more precisely you describe the damage, the better the responsible authority can review the report and arrange for repairs.

Please specify the location of the issue as precisely as possible. Useful details include the street name, house number, intersection, direction of travel, or a brief description of the surroundings. If an online service is available, you may be able to provide additional details or upload photos there, depending on the municipality.

The specific types of damage that can be reported depend on the services offered by the respective city or municipality. The available options and the appropriate contact point will be displayed once you select your location.
