When the weather is dry, the company car is left behind and a bicycle patrol is on the road in the parks and on footpaths and hiking trails to check that everything is in order. Also, quietly and often unnoticed, remote residential and company areas are inspected with the company bicycles so that the citizens can feel safe.
Police Commander Gerald Klement: “It’s often quicker to cycle in city traffic than by car, and this way we are in much more direct contact with the population and the guests of our city. A nice side effect is that we also do something for our do physical fitness.”
Mayor Peter Schobesberger, himself a proven fan of the bicycle, says: “The Vöcklabruck traffic turnaround is also supported by our city police. I would like to support that to the best of my ability. I would like to thank our local entrepreneur Sport Asen for the generous concession.”
