&gt; Schinveld has been handed back to Germany. This road was built on Dutch<br/>
&gt; territory when it was built in the late fifties. When the territory was<br/>
&gt; handed back to Germany in 1963, from which country it was annexed after<br/>
&gt; the Second World War, it was with the exclusion of said road. <br/>

Peter, with the maintenance for the road having traditionally been in <br/>
Dutch hands, what did the traffic signs look like? I presume they were <br/>
Dutch, rather than German? If so, it would be interesting to see how <br/>
expediently the Germans will replace them with their own. <br/>
