German term

GVS

German to English Other Transport / Transportation / Shipping
This comes from an application for a loaded heavy vehicle to cross a stretch with traffic prohibitions. One point of the stretch reads:

"Übf. GVS bei Heilsbronn"

It doesn't really help that I'm still looking for Übf. Thanks for any help.

Thanks, all I've printed out pp. 14-15 of Johannes' ref.

@ Johannes ..rolls over and puts legs in the air.. just a suggestion! I'll go back to my original one ... I was only trying to be nice to Andrew. Dare I suggest that there is sometimes more than one translation, and that there is an Internet reference to all of them?
Johannes Gleim Nov 21, 2012:
No Level crossing! A level crossing is retranslated "Bahnübergang". This is abbreviated "BÜ". See http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType...§Hdr=on&spellToler=&search=Level+crossing

http://www.dict.cc/?s=level crossing

Bahnübergang (Abkürzung: BÜ) ist eine höhengleiche Kreuzung einer Eisenbahnstrecke mit einer Straße, einem Weg oder einem Platz ..

Level crossing? @Andrew et al... on reflection, I think this is a level crossing.
Parrot (asker) Nov 21, 2012:
Not so silly if you think not so long ago I was floundering in the Gefahrgutverordnung... :D (as to the bridge, I have it from the client).
Lancashireman Nov 21, 2012:
Hi Parrot Enter 'Heilsbronn' into Google Maps and then trace the course of the B14. I can't see a likely candidate for a bridge over a local road, but it does cross a very straight railway track just outside town. Re your other question, I couldn't spot JG's underpass anywhere in Obereichenbach.

Gemeindeverbindungsstraße

Not sure about the best way to translate it, but municipality communication road looks like it might work for BE.

Gemeindeverbindungsstraße Gewerbegebiet
Heilsbronn Süd / GVS nach Aich. Die
Zufahrt zu den beiden vorgenannten
Gemeindeverbindungsstraßen aus
Richtung Windsbach ist jederzeit gewährleistet.

The Buswartehobel (German for Bus stop plane or literally Bus waiting plane) is a plane-shaped bus shelter in Zachenberg in the Bavarian Forest. It is located at the municipality connection road (Gemeindeverbindungsstraße) between Zachenberg and Köckersried, a short distance after the end of the village of Zachenberg.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buswartehobel

the municipality connecting road is a local road, which is outside of the closed locality and stands in the building load of the municipality. With the municipality connecting road municipalities or their local parts are mostly interconnected.
