Environmental zone Leipzig:
Since 1st of March 2011 Leipzig has an „environmental zone“. This is a German rule which was made to reduce the car emissions in Germany. The environmental zone covers big parts of the city area of Leipzig. The environmental areas are marked by special signs. You can only enter this area with a green environmental badge. Older cars will sometimes get a red or yellow environmental badge. With red or yellow badges you are not allowed to enter the green environmental parts of the city. Leipziger Messe as well as the airport have no environmental zones and could be entered without badge.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: If you have a CO2 fire extinguisher available please bring it with you. This is a safety regulation of Leipziger Messe
