construction site traffic lights should make life -threatening crossing in Beuel

In Beuel, a new measure to improve the safety of pedestrians and cyclists is implemented on a strongly frequented crossing aid. A demand emphasis is installed on the K 8 state road at the Ettenhausen bus stop. This decision was caught on May 7 during a meeting of the district council of Beuel and is based on an inquiry by a concerned citizen.

The citizen drew attention to the difficulties that pedestrians and cyclists have when crossing the K 8. She explained that it was often a significant challenge to find a sufficient gap in traffic in good time in order to be able to cross the street safely. In particular, there is a lack of a central island that could enable the crossers to interrupt traffic. In these circumstances, an additional security measure is urgently needed.

The planned needs will enable traffic users to cross more securely by being able to stop vehicle traffic if pedestrians or cyclists want to cross the street. This initiative aims to reduce potentially life -threatening situations for the weaker road users.

Similar measures were taken in many cities to increase traffic safety. Templing of needs have proven to be an effective solution to make it easier to cross busy roads, and offer important support for pedestrians who are often unsettled. The introduction of such traffic regulation systems not only shows a reaction to local concerns, but also a long -term commitment to the security of all road users.

The district council Beuel has set a clear sign with this step that the safety of residents and road users is at the top. It remains to be seen how the implementation of the needs make -up will improve the situation on site and whether further measures will follow in order to optimize the flow of traffic and security in the region.
