Renovation of the cycle path between Rehna and Nesow is delayed!

There is currently exciting, albeit challenging, news for cyclists in the region around Rehna. The renovation of the cycle path between Rehna and Nesow will be delayed. Loud Baltic Sea newspaper The work is now scheduled to begin on July 28th. The originally planned start date was July 16, but was postponed due to capacity constraints at the construction company. The construction work is scheduled until August 15th.

There will be some changes for cyclists during the construction phase. The cycle path will be completely closed and cyclists will have to switch to the B 104. This could pose an additional challenge for many, especially in a traffic area that is always the subject of debate.

The safety of cyclists on the road

The dangers for cyclists on the road are a hot topic. A look at the current discussion shows that although cyclists are often threatened by overtaking vehicles on federal highways, the main cause of accidents is often turning cars or trucks that cross cycle paths. This reports taz.

The inadequate infrastructure along federal highways does not make cycling any easier. One-sided cycle paths are particularly dangerous because they are often crossed without regard to right-of-way. Cyclists have to be agile in such situations and can often avoid them better than motorized road users. But numerous conflict situations, especially when crossing exits and entrances, represent a major risk.

Studies and recommendations for safe cycling

A study by insurers' accident research (UDV) underlines the risks that cyclists take in German-speaking countries (DACH). Loud Focus Mobility Around two thirds of all serious bicycle accidents occur at intersections, which are often confusing. A lack of structural measures, such as safe crossings for cyclists, further aggravates the situation.

On country roads, where there are often no separate cycle paths, cyclists are left defenseless against car traffic. The combination of high speeds and narrow streets poses enormous potential for danger. The UDV study indicates that 41% of bicycle accidents are due to collisions with cars, highlighting the urgency of further measures to improve road safety.

Finally, the Schwerin Road Construction Authority would like to ask citizens for their understanding and encourage them to adapt their travel planning during the construction period. The renovation is an important step in maintaining the infrastructure in the long term and at the same time improving the safety of all road users.
