Economy demands: Finally pressure in the B96 expansion before the election!

In the run -up to the Bundestag election, the pressure on the expansion of federal road B96 in northeastern Germany increases. The Chambers of Industry and Commerce (IHK) in Neubrandenburg and Potsdam have contacted several hundred actors from politics and associations in a joint letter in order to advertise the project. Torsten Haasch, General Manager of the IHK Neubrandenburg, was concerned about the current traffic situation, which was characterized by bottlenecks and security risks: "With traffic volume of up to 14,000 vehicles, numerous sections of the route are overloaded every day," he warned. Dr. Christian Herzog, General Manager of IHK Potsdam, appealed to the Brandenburg state government to declare the expansion into a top priority.

In order to support your demands, an information brochure under the title "Expansion of the connection axis B 96 - for a strong economic region" was created. This was sent to political decision -makers and illustrates the urgency of modernizing the B96. In addition to an improvement in commercial traffic, the business representatives are also hoping for a better connection to the northeast German tourism regions, since the street is an essential connection between Berlin and the popular Baltic islands Rügen and Usedom.

planned improvements and resistance

The project "Expansion of the B 96 Neustrelitz - Neubrandenburg" is designed to significantly improve the traffic situation in the region. These measures should optimize the connection of the middle centers and long -distance transport and at the same time take special nature conservation aspects. Deges took over the line planning for this expansion, and the line confirmation was already carried out in September 2019 by the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania

.

However, there is also resistance to the expansion plans. An action alliance under the title "B96 expansion: not!" criticizes the planned, as an oversized, expansion. The critics argue that this majority is a new building, which contradicts climate protection and sustainability goals. Instead, they only require a slight expansion with some better overtaking options and advocate investing the saved money of an estimated 100 million euros in improving the rail and cycle path network.

For more information about the planned measures of the B96 expansion, interested parties can be reported by nordkurier and Deges view.
