A new motion from parliamentary groups is fueling the debate on car traffic again.

Munich - Tempo 30 as the standard speed throughout the city - Munich * does not let go of this topic.

Dozens of readers wrote us their opinion on the plan.

Munich: Tempo 30 in the whole city?

ÖDP / FW demand a change of perspective

You apply for a three-year city-wide model test with Tempo 30 as the maximum speed limit.
