Level crossing in Jaderberg: worries about safe ways to school during the closure

renewed worries in Jaderberg about the safety of their children in school. The level crossing on Raiffeisenstraße will be blocked from September 4th to 8th due to construction work, which has a significant impact on school traffic. During this time, the commercial road stop, which is located behind the barriers, is not served. The buses of line 432 will head for a replacement stop on Vareler Straße, at the Schmidt furniture store.

In particular, the parents of elementary school students from the surrounding residential areas are alerted. They are worried about the safe connection to Georgstrasse. The new path to the replacement stop leads over a street that is not only narrow, but also not very visible. It is known that Vareler Straße is often used by vehicles, which makes the situation dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists.

dangers through poor visibility

Although there is a traffic light for cars on Vareler Straße, a corresponding signal system for pedestrians and cyclists is missing. This leads to incomprehensible and dangerous situations, especially since a so -called parabolic level is attached to the post, which contributes little to improve the view. The parents criticize this security deficit sharply and warn that it is particularly risky for elementary school students.

In order to avoid this danger, many parents have decided to bring their children to school in the said days. But this also seems to be an intolerable solution, since the traffic situation about the already tense area of the commercial and Georgstrasse is not satisfactory. In the past, solutions have already been searched for in the Council, but these efforts have so far appeared.

The concerns of the residents and the parents are not unfounded. During the construction work, they fear that the commercial and Georgstrasse will be used by drivers as an abbreviation, although these streets are only released for residents. These additional road users could further tighten the already confusing situation.

The situation in Jaderberg shows a clear tendency: the safety precautions for school routes are inadequate, especially with regard to the planned construction and the associated traffic changes. Parents are concerned about the lack of answers and measures that have been required for years but have never been implemented. The further development of the situation remains to be seen, but the immediate dangers during the blocking of the level crossing must be solved as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the students.
