Roads during school traffic: expensive emergency services and city festival attracts!

Oschatz, Deutschland - The North Saxony region faces some changes in the field of public transport, especially in school traffic. From the coming summer holidays, Nordsachsen Mobil will drastically reduce the number of trips in the Oschatz region as well as in the cities of Delitzsch and Eilenburg. This decision was made on the basis of the tense budget situation, which also results in a deletion of additional reversal reversals from schools. These measures apply from the new school year and could bring challenges for numerous students and their parents. According to LVZ those affected have to adjust to the changed timetables.

The student transport in Saxony is regulated in § 23 paragraph 3 of the SächsschulG. This includes the path from the apartment to school and back. It is important to know that the providers of school transport - i.e. the counties and independent cities - even determine details about the type and scope of transport in their statutes. Information on this is available from the district offices and city administrations, as the Saxon School explains.

cost increases in the emergency services

Another financial topic concerns the emergency services in the North Saxony district. From 2026, its financing will increase by almost 100 million euros, which will have an impact until 2032. Jens Kabisch, the second deputy of the district, attributes the causes to a general cost dynamic. Even if there will be no changes to the service providers in cities such as Schkeuditz, Taucha and Torgau in the coming year, this means a noticeable burden on the public funds and could have an impact on other services. The LVZ further reports that the qualification of all emergency services employees will be subject to strict requirements in the district in the future.

new growth in Graditz

There is also gratifying news from the Graditz main stud: A new foal of the Rheinisch-German cold blood breed has seen the light of day. This breed is on the red list of endangered domestic livestock breeds. The youngsters will start driving training in three years and could contribute to the preservation of this traditional breed.

The city festival in Delitzsch

in Delitzsch it will soon be really lively, because thousands of guests are expected to go to the city festival. This festival brings with it the historical Peter and Paul Markt as well as the Bundeswehr's day. Note that some streets are closed during the festival and that the parking facilities in the old town will be restricted. The festive start begins with a musical prayer in the city church, followed by the opening of the historical market on Friday. On Saturday the Bundeswehr day is the focus of the LVZ reports.

In connection with the announced changes, it is now important that affected parents and students will find out about the new regulations on school transport. The offer of the student regional card applies to school, but can also be used on weekends and during the summer vacation. Applying is required by the district. From the fifth grade, students also have the opportunity to claim the educational ticket, information for this can be found on the website of Nordsachsen mobil .
