The Stralsund Roads Office is one of three roads offices in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It is responsible for 440 kilometres of federal and 1,320 kilometres of state roads in the rural district authorities of Rostock and Vorpommern-Rügen.
A total of 330 employees work for the Stralsund Roads Office. To this can be added the apprentices training to become road maintenance operatives. The Roads Office has nine roads depots, which are responsible for the maintenance and repair of federal and state roads. They also assume the legal duty to mitigate hazards arising from an owner's property, in this case the transport infrastructure.
Each municipality is responsible for roads passing through them if they have the statutory duty to provide and maintain these roads. This applies, for example to the federal and state roads in Hansestadt Rostock and the state roads in Hansestadt Stralsund. However, the duty to maintain the federal road B103 from the A20 motorway to the Lütten Klein interchange and to maintain the federal road B96 from the A20 motorway to Stralsund (the Rügen feeder road) lies with the Stralsund Roads Office.
