Explanation
Speed and rules in a residential and play street
-------------------------------------------------
The **S-28 sign** indicates a *residential and play street*, that is, a traffic area intended **mainly for pedestrians**. Special rules apply in these areas:
- The **maximum speed** for vehicles is **10 km/h**.
- This speed limit is **always accompanied** by the **R-301 sign**, which explicitly sets the limit at **10 km/h**.
- **Drivers must always give way to pedestrians**.
- **Vehicles may only park** in places **expressly designated** by signs or road markings.
- **Cycles and, where applicable, PMVs (personal mobility vehicles)** may circulate **in both directions**, unless the competent authority indicates otherwise.
- **Pedestrians may use the entire traffic area**, so **no pedestrian crossings are marked**.
- **Games and sports are allowed** throughout the area.
In summary, in a residential and play street pedestrians have priority, speed is **clearly limited to 10 km/h** by the corresponding signs (S-28 together with R-301), and the space is shared but subject to very restrictive rules for vehicles.
