Urgent renovation: Trebel Bridge in danger – city administration alerted!
In the Hanseatic city, the Trebel Bridge between Drönnewitz and Wotenick needs to be urgently renovated. As the Grieser engineering firm from Greifswald documented, alarming damage was discovered during a recent bridge inspection. The 11-year-old inspection shows crumbling concrete, exposed steel reinforcement and rust, which has caused major concern for city officials. The Mecklenburg Lake District has therefore issued a closure order to the city, as the duty to ensure traffic safety clearly lies with the city authorities. Nordkurier reports that…
The regulation stipulates that a comprehensive main inspection in accordance with DIN standard 1076 is carried out every six years. The last test was published in 1999 and serves to ensure the stability and safe use of bridges.

Urgent need for renovation
The cost estimate for the now 55-year-old bridge is around 500,000 euros. A makeshift repair to the mortar joints, which was carried out by the city craftsmen, already cost 16,000 euros. These defects in the mortar layer between the reinforced concrete superstructure and the steel main beams must be urgently remedied, worries parliamentary group leader Steffen Teetz from the CDU. The city council plans to apply for the renovation of the Trebel Bridge as an urgent need for the 2026 budget. Biberger emphasizes that...
The city representatives do not hesitate and want to decide on additional funds for the planning documents, even if the budget is strained. Teetz warns urgently about the possible consequences of a sudden structural failure, especially for the fire and rescue services who rely on the unhindered use of the bridge. The need to act quickly is becoming increasingly clear.
Overall, those responsible are making robust decisions to ensure the safety of citizens and avoid possible accidents. Early planning and examining funding opportunities are now the next steps that are the focus. It is clear: There is a need for action on the Trebel Bridge and safety is the top priority.
