New traffic regulations on Kreuther Straße – safety for children!

The municipality of Bernhardswald has introduced new traffic regulations for Kreuther Straße, which will affect the everyday life of residents and especially the parents of kindergarten children. This measure comes into force to increase safety at the entrance to the kindergarten. Like the community on their website reported, the new regulation is intended to apply primarily during the times when the children are dropped off and picked up.

As part of this change, the arrangement of the parking spaces on Kreuther Straße will be modified. In the future there will be a temporary stopping restriction to ensure the safety of pedestrians, especially children. Residents have already been informed about these adjustments and asked to pay attention to the new traffic signs.

Expected impacts on residents

The measure was decided after a careful safety check to avoid accidents and optimize traffic flow during peak hours. According to initial feedback from residents, the new regulation appears to be met with support, as many parents want to benefit from the increased safety. One resident commented positively: “It is important that the children come to school safely.”

Municipal leaders have also made it clear that this arrangement could be temporary if it turns out that additional measures are necessary. This gives residents the opportunity to share their comments on the new traffic routing and request adjustments if necessary.

Long-term planning

The traffic regulations should not only ensure safety in the short term, but should also be part of the larger context of traffic planning. The municipality has defined goals to improve the overall traffic situation. In the future, this will be implemented at various levels, including through new road planning and perhaps also through targeted traffic education measures.
