Lebacher Straße seeks traffic alleviation: City District Association and Bicyclists' Association endorse package of proposals by Stadtteilverein and ADFC

In the heart of Saarbrücken, the Greens faction is spearheading a campaign to promote cycling and public transport, with a particular focus on reducing motorized individual traffic, especially heavy transit. This initiative comes following a joint demand catalog from the neighborhood association Malstatt gemeinsam stark e.V. (Mags) and the General German Cycling Club (ADFC).

The burden of heavy traffic, especially along Lebacher Straße, has become unbearable for the residents of Upper Malstatt, according to José Ignacio Rodriguez Maicas, the traffic policy spokesman for the Greens faction. The proposed measures, which include a consistent driving ban for transit heavy traffic, are aimed at improving traffic safety and enhancing the quality of life in the neighborhood.

Rodriguez Maicas emphasizes the importance of local residents' ideas and expectations, as demonstrated by the proposal from Mags and ADFC. He urges those who take climate protection seriously and want to relieve people locally not to hesitate any longer.

The Greens also support other points of the demand catalog, such as colour-marked and widened bike protection strips, additional dialogue displays for displaying driving speed, and extended green phases for pedestrian and bicycle traffic. These measures are designed to make the streets safer and more accessible for cyclists and pedestrians.

In addition, the Greens faction places a strong emphasis on protecting children in the vicinity of schools and daycare centers. Rodriguez Maicas states that children should not have to fear cars or trucks on their way to school.

The Greens have announced they will advocate for the implementation of these proposed measures in the city council. They also approve of the planned communication campaigns to promote cycling and public transport.

However, the search results do not provide specific information about which persons or institutions in Saarbrücken are identified by the Green Party faction as potential pioneers for promoting bicycle traffic and public transportation.

The Lebacher Straße, which runs through a residential area, is increasingly being used as a transit route for trucks. Rodriguez Maicas considers this unsustainable in terms of traffic policy and socially. The Greens faction in Saarbrücken-Malstatt has advocated for a comprehensive relief of Lebacher Straße.

In conclusion, the Greens faction in Saarbrücken-Malstatt is taking a proactive approach to promoting sustainable transportation and reducing traffic congestion. Their focus on protecting children, improving traffic safety, and enhancing the quality of life in the neighborhood is commendable and aligns with the broader goals of climate protection and social responsibility.
