Parking garage in Rendsburg closed: Over 300 parking spaces will be lost!
Things are currently very busy in Rendsburg: the over 50-year-oldParking garage on Nienstadtstrassewas closed for security reasons. This reports kn online. Over 300 parking spaces will now be lost in the city center for the time being. An inspection by an engineering firm has brought sad certainty: the safety of the dilapidated structure is no longer guaranteed. Corrosion damage to reinforcing steel is well advanced and the first damage was discovered five years ago. At that time, some parking spaces and entire floors were closed.
Rendsburg politicians have been convinced for more than two years that a comprehensive renovation of the parking garage cannot be undertaken. Current construction work relies on wooden supports, which are installed in twelve places to improve safety, reports shz. Despite these measures, uncertainty remains about the remaining useful life of the parking garage. So far, not all parking spaces have been available; Most recently, 45 places had to be closed.
Safety comes first
The city administration has made it clear that the safety of citizens is its top priority. Mayor Janet Sönnichsen emphasizes that despite the closure, alternative parking options are available in the city center. There is a relief for parking permit holders: There are no fees during the closure. However, a big question mark remains: What will happen to the dilapidated building? Demolition and a possible new building are seen as inevitable.
Politically, solutions to the parking problem have been sought for a long time. Plans to expand the commuter parking lot on Konrad-Adenauer-Straße and the construction of a new parking garage are in the drawer, but no agreement is yet in sight. Company representatives and local residents are eagerly awaiting concrete steps.
Financing represents another challenge: installing the wooden supports costs around 65,000 euros, while the annual income from operating the parking garage is around 170,000 euros. It remains to be seen whether the investment will pay off in the long term.
The closure of the parking garage impressively shows how important it is to have a good hand when it comes to infrastructure for citizens. Rendsburg is facing major challenges and its eyes are on developments. There is still a long way to go to resolve this matter, but the city appears determined to find solutions.
