Construction site alarm: Georgstrasse in Bad Zwischenahn closed on August 18th!

Georgstrasse in Bad Zwischenahn will be closed for several hours on August 18th between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. This section extends from the junction with the streets In der Horst and Peterstraße to around 20 meters towards Oldenburger Straße. The reason for this measure is the necessary renovation of manhole covers. Drivers and residents must prepare for some diversions that will affect the accessibility of adjacent roads. The diversions lead via In der Horst, Am Hogen Hagen, Oldenburger Straße, Lange Straße and Peterstraße. Residents continue to have access to their properties until the construction site. In addition, bus route 350 will use temporary diversions: The buses will travel from the central bus station via Mühlenstrasse to Langen Strasse and then continue on their regular route. However, stops such as Peterstrasse, the market and the Badepark will inevitably have to be canceled during this time, explains NWZ Online.

But it's not just this construction site that is causing changes in Bad Zwischenahn. Another important measure concerns the Bad Zwischenahn water tower. At an extraordinary council meeting on October 12, 2023, 20 council members voted for, while 16 voted against the administration's proposed resolution. This provides for the renovation and future use of the historic water tower, although the approval of funding and the provision of budget funds are still at stake. The total costs of the construction project amount to around 2.8 million euros, of which one million euros was promised from the federal “KulturInvest” program. In March 2022, the local council decided to prepare an inventory and cost estimate for the maintenance of the listed tower. Ideas from citizens should also be incorporated into a new usage concept, with a café or restaurant as well as rooms for club work and meeting places being particularly popular. The accessibility of the viewing platform remains an important concern, reports Bad Zwischenahn.
