Mandate for Facial Covering Required

In the city of Neuss, a new ordinance requiring the use of mouth-nose protection in regularly heavily frequented outdoor areas has come into effect as of October 19, 2020. This rule applies to areas such as the main street zone, train station area, city hall, and their adjacent streets.

The Corona Protection Ordinance of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) has been implemented in coordination with the Rhein-Kreis Neuss and other municipalities to ensure the safety and well-being of its residents and visitors. Police and local authorities will be monitoring compliance with this rule in the specified areas.
