Dangerous bike path in Hamm: Readers warns of life at Südstraße

cyclists in Hamm warn of extremely dangerous conditions on the bike path on the Südstrasse, which leads from the town hall to Pauluskirche. Readers Knut Wierhake emphasizes that cyclists have to "smuggle" into the flowing traffic without corresponding warnings for drivers. The lack of speed restriction is particularly criticized, as many vehicles take the curve too quickly. Wierhake notes: "The motorized vehicles often drive there at too high speed."

In addition, an earlier left -hand lane was removed, which further tightens the Situation for cyclists. This turning aid once was a safe way to master the traffic situation, but now the area without crossing aids and speed restrictions can be used extremely riskily. The challenge for cyclists in view of the great traffic is obvious - traffic safety in Hamm is on the brink. More details on this topic are in a report on www.wa.de to be found.
