Gemeitpiece Vötting: New primary school almost finished despite cost problems!

Vötting, Freising, Deutschland - The preparations for the new primary school in Vötting in Freising are about to graduate. In the last trains of the work, everything is done to ensure that the students can move in in January. The project had to deal with some unexpected challenges, but they don't seem to endanger the entire project.

The costs for the construction have increased due to several factors, which the members of the Committee on Education, Culture and Sport informed at a meeting on Wednesday. Construction price increases are not extraordinary today, and the additional costs of 1.46 million euros result primarily from serious water damage and necessary adjustments to the construction work.

challenges from water damage and construction work

The water damage, which is due to three major heavy rain events, has caused an additional cost of 680,000 euros alone. However, there is hope that parts of the costs could be covered by insurance. It is particularly gratifying that the circumventing reactions can be better encountered the damage to future risks. The measures include drainage that should ensure that future floods are prevented.

The original cost estimate of less than 40 million euros has increased significantly, but the completion date on January 7, 2025 remains in sight. Architect Anton Rudolph even expressed the confidence that the construction work could take place on December 1st in order to be able to make last adjustments.

The mayor Eva Bönig said positively about the development of the project and the possibility that the additional costs are understandable. Their trust extends to the necessary steps that have been taken to make the elementary school a valuable resource for families in the area. Despite the increased costs, there is a uniform understanding of those involved that such challenges in the planning of construction projects often occur.

Currently the Vöttingen elementary school students attend a provisional school in Neustift on Sternplatz. The plan stipulates that they can return after the Christmas holidays, which is of great importance for both the children and parents. The timing and the integration of the new facility in Freising are perceived as a great relief.

The anticipation and the commitment of those involved are unmistakable. School officer Monika Riesch praised the work of everyone who is involved in the project and wishes that despite the financial burden, the positive aspects will come to the fore, while the community is preparing for the return of the children in their school rooms. The overall development of the project is considered significant for the future of the community and marks a step in the right direction for the educational infrastructure in Freising.
