The southern country road should become a pedestrian zone

Currently no cars are allowed to drive in the small section between the music theater and the Goethe intersection. The reason is a construction site, as reported, a residential building is being built in place of the former Betten Reiter. According to Hajart, the closure has no impact on the flow of traffic. The traffic officer concludes from this that traffic is not necessary in this area and that the entire area could be redesigned as a pedestrian zone and made more attractive. “This means we can also defuse a problem area in the Volksgarten,” says Hajart, referring to the Linzers who are mostly addicted and who stay in the area of ​​the tram stop. Therefore, this area will no longer be open to traffic even after the construction site is completed. “Everyone will benefit from this – business people as well as pedestrians,” says Hajart. In the long term, the entire country road should become a pedestrian zone.

“Domgasse success story” is entering the second phase

For Hajart, the model is the transformation of Domgasse, which is now going into the second phase. The transitions between consumption-free zones and outdoor dining areas will be designed, an exchange kiosk will be built, the theme of “free play in the city” will be implemented and the meeting zone on the road will be made more visible in color. The architect Clemens Bauder, who was significantly involved in the redesign, also sees the project positively: “This is an example of how the city can be given back to the people. The approach, namely to develop longer-term solutions through temporary interventions and thereby draw conclusions about permanent transformation and to involve people and let them help shape it instead of prescribing something from above, is a model that should be retained in future transformations.
