Legal access restriction for  Heavy goods vehicles.

Common values

Main article: Key:access § List of possible values

Around the world

In most countries, heavy goods vehicles are goods vehicles (goods=*) with a maximum allowed weight (maxweightrating=*) above 3.5 tonnes.

The maximum allowed weight, also known as the  gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) or gross vehicle mass (GVM) is the maximum permitted weight of the vehicle at full load, as specified by the manufacturer. Note that not all countries (explicitly) differentiate between light and heavy goods vehicles. Also, many countries do not follow the UNECE resolution on vehicle classes (see  Vehicle categories) and establish a different weight than 3.5 (metric) tonnes:

  • Australia: 4.5 tonnes[1]
  • Bolivia: a load capacity of 2.5 tonnes[2]
  • Japan: maximum allowed weight ≥8 tonnes or load capacity ≥5 tonnes; for regulating smaller trucks, additional signs based on load capacity are used (see below).

United States

In the United States, including Puerto Rico, hgv=designated and hgv=no tags should be consistent with local regulations that refer to medium- and heavy-duty trucks, as expressed by signs that include the word "Trucks" or a truck icon:

Use both goods=* and hgv=* to represent signs saying "commercial vehicles".

Some data consumers may need to interpret hgv=* based on the physical characteristics of the user's vehicle. Under federal law, a medium- or heavy-duty truck is defined as one that weighs at least 10,001 pounds (4,536 kg) GVWR and has at least six tires.[3][4]

Tagging examples

Zeichen 253 - Verbot für Kraftfahrzeuge mit einem zulässigen Gesamtgewicht, StVO 1992.svgFinland road sign 313.svgSADC road sign R229.svgMUTCD R5-2.svg hgv=no
Zeichen 266 - Verbot für Fahrzeuge und Züge über angegebene Länge einschließlich Ladung, StVO 1992.svgFinland road sign 343.svgRU road sign 3.15.svgSADC road sign R205.svg maxlength=10

Even though a goods vehicle is depicted, usually the sign applies to all vehicles. Otherwise, it would be maxlength:hgv=10.

GermanySADC road sign R230.svgUK traffic sign 622.1A.svgVorschriftszeichen 7a Gewicht.svg Use maxweightrating:hgv=*

This is not a weight restriction (like Zeichen 262 - Verbot für Fahrzeuge deren tatsächliches Gewicht eine gewisse Grenze überschreitet (600x600); StVO 1992.svg), but a restriction for goods vehicles with a maximum allowed weight above the depicted value!

Belgian road sign GVIIa.jpg

Belgium only.

goods:conditional=no @ (weight>2.0) and hgv:conditional=no @ (weight>2.0)

No entry for drivers of motor vehicles and combination vehicles designed and constructed for the transport of goods above a specific weight. The maximum mass is indicated by a sign underneath.

Japan road sign 305 and 503-C.svg In Japan, truck signs only regulate much larger trucks (see above); additional signs with a kanji character "積", which means load, are very common for regulating smaller trucks.

hgv=no
goods:conditional=no @ (loadcapacity>=3.0)

Note that the mass indicated is the load capacity registered for the vehicle, and not the current load, the total weight, nor the maximum allowed weight.

Lanes

RU road sign 5.15.7 B.svg

(Russia)

If used in 1 line:
lanes=3
lanes:forward=2
lanes:backward=1
hgv:lanes:forward=no|yes

If road mapped as two oneways (due to physical separation), use following tags on the right oneway northbound:

lanes=2
hgv:lanes=no|yes
Portugal road sign F1c.svg

(Portugal)

lanes=3
hgv:lanes=no|yes|yes
