| | kerbs | Explanation:
Schrammbord = literally 'scuffing edge' and is an officialese term used to describe the edging stones of pavements, etc.
Your context simply neans that the useful road width (Fahrstreifen) is the area between the kerbs, regardless of whether the road marking says differently.

The Schrammbordstreifen describes the narrow strip (about 30 cm in Germany) between the edge of the kerbstone and an adjoining wall, fence, etc. They are not pavements, but serve to prevent traffic from getting too close to the wall or fence. They are also used on bridges, etc. to prevent the traffic getting too close to the railings. |
