Restrictions on popular nature and hiking trails
When considering the decision for establishing traffic restrictions:
- Is the restriction justified.
- what is the impact on both local inhabitants and other road users (for example, people who want to access places of natural beauty).
- whether the already established 2-by-2 rule which allow for maximum of two people to be together and keeping a minimum of 2 metres apart with others, is not sufficient.

If the owner of the road is:
- a rural municipality or a city then they will make the decision for the establishment of traffic restrictions.
- the state, then the rural municipality or city must submit an application to the Road Administration in order to establish traffic restrictions.
Once the permit has been received, the information regarding traffic restrictions must be published before the restriction enters into force:
- on the Road Administration's traffic information web application.
- other public information channels such as local newspapers and rural municipality or city websites.

Information about traffic restrictions should be provided through as many channels as possible (newspapers, television, radio, websites, letter) as follows:
- a traffic restriction with significant impact at least 14 days before it enters into force,
- other traffic restrictions at least 1 working day before it enters into force,
- if the traffic restrictions is due to exceptional circumstances the notification must be provided as soon as possible after it enters into force. The justification for the restrictions must be provided to everyone.
If anyone feels that the restriction violates their rights and freedoms, they may submit a challenge to the rural municipality or the city, or file a complaint to an administrative court.
