Big relief for Weißenfeld: the local bypass is taking shape!
Exciting news from the region: With the expansion of the A99, a long-awaited bypass for the villages of Weißenfeld and Parsdorf will become reality. The old district road between the two towns will be repurposed, and the new plans promise to significantly reduce the noise and traffic burden on residents. According to [merkur.de](https://www.merkur.de/lokales/ebersberg/ Vaterstetten-ort29638/ein-gluecksfall-wegen-99-ausbau-bund-zahlt-langersehnte-ortsumfahrung-93952349.html), Autobahn GmbH is fully financing the project, so that neither the district nor the municipality has to cover the costs.
This bypass is expected to result in up to 8,000 fewer vehicles and trucks passing through the villages, which could significantly improve both air quality and the quality of life for residents. District Administrator Robert Niedergesäß has spoken positively about the financial relief for the district and sees this expansion as a real stroke of luck for everyone affected.
New transport route is being planned
The new route will pass Weißenfeld, Parsdorf and the A99 in the west. The plan is for the bypass to run south of Weißenfeld and cross the EBE 17 in the direction of Vaterstetten. In the future, the old district road will be converted into a cycle path that will only be accessible to cyclists and residents. The construction of the new road layout is expected to take around two years.
But it should also be borne in mind that the bypass could potentially lead to increased traffic in surrounding towns. So it remains to be seen how the traffic situation will develop in the long term.
Background on the motorway network
The A99, a central part of the construction site plan, connects important motorways in Bavaria, including the A96 and the A94. It relieves the urban area of Munich of through traffic, which results in enormous traffic of up to 150,000 vehicles per day during the travel week. The expansion from 6 to 8 lanes is a necessary measure to cope with daily traffic volumes. In addition, the use of open-pored asphalt (OPA) is also being considered to reduce noise, which can reduce the noise level by up to 5 dB(A), as autobahn.de explains.
Strict legal regulations apply to noise protection, which are anchored in the Federal Immission Control Act. All new buildings must adhere to certain emission limits in order to protect residents from excessive traffic noise. The noise protection systems can reach heights of up to 10 meters in order to effectively counteract the nuisance, as the information from lfu.bayern.de shows.
How the developments will affect the quality of life locally remains exciting. Looking ahead to the coming months, everyone involved hopes for a smooth implementation of the renovations and a noticeable improvement for the citizens in the region.
