Where are the bottom sills? Wunsiedel remains dangerous!
In the city of Wunsiedel, an unsolved problem causes resentment among the residents of Koppetentorstrasse. This was shown as a play street, but many drivers seem to simply ignore the speed limits. Mayor Nicolas Lahovnik called on the scene in May 2024, which promised to install bottom sills to reduce the speed of the vehicles and increase safety. To date, however, these measures have not been realized, which increasingly frustrated the residents.
Traffic situation and residents' complaints
The streets are more than just traffic routes for residents; They are habitat. But when vehicles race through the Koppetentorstraße at excessive speed, this quality of life is severely affected. This can be seen in the lawsuits of residents who indicate the insufficient compliance with the speed limits. More and more people are wondering: "Where are the promised bottom sills?"
The need for such traffic calming measures is undisputed among experts. The legal basis stipulates that a qualified danger situation must be given in order to order appropriate measures. And this is exactly where the road traffic authority sees a need for action. When examining whether base skirts or other elements such as paving, it should also be taken into account that similar measures in comparable roads have been able to cause real miracles in the past.
Traffic calming through various measures
Loud Stvo2go Traffic calming measures can be implemented differently, from one -way streets to pure residential streets to structural elements such as bollards and flower tubs. These elements are widely recognized to reduce the pace of the vehicles. In particular, batches that are 8 to 10 cm high have proven to be effective in many cities. They often reduce the speed of the cars to less than 30 km/h and thus ensure more security, especially in residential areas.
But despite these proven methods, the implementation in Wunsiedel is missing. Many residents hope that those responsible will soon show the necessary hand and tackle the promised measures. "It cannot be that we still have to wait for some things that are important for our security," said a resident with visibly upgraded tone.
The hurry is required because the security of the citizens should come first. The need for a livable space requires quick action. It is to be hoped that the city administration will soon create the incentives for the implementation of the measures, such as the painfully missing bottom sills.
