New bike path in Pfaffing: safe and comfortable for cyclists!

Pfaffing, Deutschland - On June 5, 2025, a new bike path was released in Pfaffing, which runs along the Ro41 district road. This official inauguration of a 1.4 km long bike path section is a significant improvement in traffic safety for cyclists, especially for children. District Administrator Otto Lederer emphasized this importance during the ceremony, which attracted numerous citizens, municipal councilors and members of the environmental committee of the Rosenheim district council. Pastor Josef Huber was also present and gave the church blessing for the opening.

The total cost of the project was 550,000 euros, of which 90,000 euros had to be spent on the land acquisition. A step organized by the municipality of Pfaffing. Engineering office Roplan and the Swietelsky Building Society were responsible for the construction of the bike path, which was completed in just seven weeks without complications. The official inauguration took place at the Steinhart 32 estate and, like the meeting of the environmental committee, was part of a more comprehensive program to promote cycling in the region.

an important component in the cycle path network

The newly created walking and bike path closes an important gap in the network of bike paths between Rott and Forsting and offers cyclists a safer connection to the surrounding communities. This is particularly important in view of the increasing popularity of cycling, which is not only used for leisure activities, but also as an environmentally friendly means of transport.

The district of Rosenheim now maintains over 110 kilometers along cycling paths from Kreisstraßen and over 1,000 kilometers of tourist cycle paths. These measures are part of a comprehensive initiative to promote cycling, which also includes the Bayern Netz for Radler. According to the information from bicycle traffic.bayern.de this nationwide route plan offers over 125 thematic routes and has a total length of approx. 9,000 km. The bike routes are low in traffic and nearby.

Future of cycling in the region

The commitment to the creation and improvement of cycle paths is also underlined by events at leisure fairs, where the Bayern network for cyclists is presented annually. In addition, cyclists are available free of charge, supplemented by an app that enables access to routes and important information.

Overall, the opening of the cycle path in Pfaffing shows how important the expansion of the infrastructure for cyclists is. The positive response from those present and the support of local institutions will help to further increase the attractiveness and safety of cycling in the region. The municipality of Pfaffing and those responsible hope that this initiative will inspire many citizens to use the bike as an alternative means of transport
