Lerchenhoftrasse: New transport route brings hope for Küps!
A stroke of luck for the region: The planned Lerchenhoftrasse will in the future connect the federal highway B303 with the four-lane B173 and thus advance an extensive traffic project near Küps. As np-coburg.de reports, among the 21 selected construction projects are those in Germany must be implemented quickly, and the expansion of the B173 and the implementation of the Lerchenhoftrasse are also high on the agenda.
CSU member of the Bundestag Jonas Geissler has now confirmed that the federal government will provide the necessary funds for this important project. Initially there were concerns about funding as the Ministry of Transport had a funding gap until 2029. But with the help of these new donations, the dream of better traffic management is within reach.
Special features of the Lerchenhoftrasse
The Lerchenhoftrasse not only improves traffic flow, but also ensures ecological compatibility. According to stbaba.bayern.de, as part of the CEF measure (continuous ecological functionality), a section of the Rodach will be relocated and a new loop of the Rodach will be created. This measure is intended to protect and promote ecological habitats during and after construction work.
The planned measures include, among other things, the creation of retention areas to prevent flooding and the laying of the roof, which is scheduled to begin by mid-August 2025. During the construction work there could be an increased volume of construction vehicles, especially at the northern entrance to Küps, but no closures of the B173 are planned.
Importance for the infrastructure
The implementation of the Lerchenhoftrasse is part of the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030, which is a central instrument for planning the transport infrastructure in Germany. According to bmv.de, this plan includes projects in the areas of road, rail and waterways and is designed to eliminate existing bottlenecks and maintain important transport axes ensure.
The planned investments amount to a total of around 269.6 billion euros, of which around 98.3 billion euros are earmarked for expansion and new construction projects. Part of these funds will go towards the construction of the Lerchenhoftrasse, which not only makes traffic more fluid but also contributes to improving the quality of life in the region.
The Lerchenhoftrasse not only promises a closer connection between Sonnefeld and Küps, but also a step in the right direction for a more modern and environmentally conscious infrastructure. The coming years will show how well the implementation succeeds and what positive effects it has for the entire region.
