Wildlife parking at Lübbesee: City takes measures against chaos in summer!
On the popular street “Zur Buchheide”, which leads to Lübbesee, the wonderful bathing weather not only brings smiling faces, but also causes huge parking problems. On summer weekends, bathers and cars are so crowded that residents and cyclists are often confronted with vehicles parked inconsiderately on the shoulders. According to a report by Northern Courier Many residents express their displeasure at the speeding, which is often over 30 km/h, and are calling on the city to take measures to improve the situation.
A few committed residents have already spoken to the city and made a number of suggestions. This includes the establishment of a no-parking zone at the old sports field and the designation of a bicycle lane at both ends of the street. There are also floor markings with pictograms and traffic calming measures. Ultimately, regular checks are intended to increase road safety. The head of the public order office, Rico Bechly, has confirmed that the complaints are being taken seriously; The city plans to increase traffic controls in the summer. The police will be present with speed checks, especially at peak times from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Bicycle road and traffic rules
Cyclists will have priority on the new cycle route, which will be set up in accordance with the provisions of the Road Traffic Act. An important point is that residents must line up behind cyclists. This ensures that cyclists can find their way undisturbed. Loud ADAC The maximum speed on bicycle roads is limited to 30 km/h, and motor vehicles must maintain a minimum distance of 1.50 meters when overtaking cyclists.
What is particularly exciting is that not only bicycles, but also pedelecs and e-scooters are permitted in cycle streets. In order not to endanger cyclists, additional signs may allow other types of vehicles such as cars and trucks, but always under the proviso that bicycle traffic is not hindered. This must be clearly understood by all road users and ensure that pedestrians are not put at risk when cyclists and cars share the road. Information about the rules of bicycle lanes can also be found at STVO2GO.
In order to solve the existing traffic problem in the long term, the city has already planned a no-parking zone for autumn 2024. Traffic should be better managed so that escape routes can always be kept clear. In the past, the city has issued up to 70 warnings for illegal parking on weekends. A fine of 25 euros must be paid for each warning. A clear indication that there is a need for action here!
