CDU Ludwigshafen: Clarity for the controversial environmental bridge required!

Ludwigshafen, Deutschland - The CDU Ludwigshafen has expressed itself on the recent discussions about the planned environmental bridge between the main train station and the university and emphasizes that it is not a general rejection of the project. Christoph Heller, spokesman for the CDU in the construction committee, said that many questions, in particular to finance the estimated 36 million euros, were still open. In view of the high debt of the city, transparent clarification of the financial means is essential before specific steps can be initiated.

Heller underlined the need for extensive funding from state and federal funds in order to be able to implement the project in the current budgetary situation. The SPD has also expressed similar concerns while the FWG spoke out for the environmental bridge. Heller emphasized that both bike paths and a better connection of the university site to the city center are important, but one has to remain realistic and do not cause any unfulfilled hopes.
