Vandalism on the bike path: 58 trees sabotaged - who is behind it?

In a disturbing unveiling, the municipality of Aschbach has learned about a massive vandal act. Unknowns saw 58 trees near the new cycle path, which leads from the savings market to the Kruckaberg roundabout. This targeted destruction was first discovered by an attentive community employee who noticed during the walk that one of the trees was strangely processed. Mayor Martin Schlöglhofer said that the deeds did not simply result from anger or urge to destroy, since the perpetrator bought the trees that are provided with special rabbits and even dispose of the remains so as not to attract attention. The damage is estimated at around 50,000 euros, and the municipality has already filed a complaint with the police, hoping that information from the population can lead to information, such as Noen.at reported.

In comparison, Berlin fights with similar challenges when building bike paths. A bike path over 500 meters was blocked along the Ruhleben underground station, whereby numerous trees had to be felled because their roots were injured for cycling. The district council currently sees no space for new trees on the Charlottenburger Chaussee in Spandau, which heavily burdens the progress of the cycle path project. Despite these difficulties, there are creative approaches from Lower Saxony to solve such problems. Berlin sees itself in a dilemma between the need for infrastructure and the preservation of trees, which makes the construction of bike paths a careful balancing act, so Tagesspiegel.de .
