Bosnia and Herzegovina
1. Dead end
A dead-end road is a road that does not provide a through route for some or all vehicles. It may end completely, terminate at a barrier or continue as a path that only certain road users may use.
Drivers may normally enter a dead-end road to reach homes, businesses, parking places or other destinations, but they must be prepared to turn around or leave by the same route. Signs may indicate that pedestrians or cyclists can continue beyond the point where motor traffic cannot.
What does a dead-end indication mean in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
A dead-end road gives no through route for the indicated traffic. It is different from a no-entry prohibition, so access to a destination must be assessed from the actual restrictions.

Can pedestrians or cyclists continue beyond a motor-traffic dead end in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Check for a lawful pedestrian or cycle continuation at the end. Do not assume that the absence of a motor-vehicle exit either prohibits all pedestrians or permits every cyclist to continue.

Does a dead-end indication change speed or priority rules in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
The no-through information itself does not assign junction priority or a numerical speed limit. Continue to obey the actual speed, access, parking and priority controls. If you need to turn around, use a suitable lawful place, check for pedestrians and cyclists, and do not obstruct the space needed for other vehicles to turn.
