Kassel fights against traffic game vests: new bollards at the Königstor!

Forbidden passage in Kassel: Drivers ignore the closure at the Königstor! Despite the clear traffic rules, many vehicle drivers race through the newly installed modal filters. Aida Razdric, a hairdresser on site, is a witness to daily chaos: "I could get popcorn and watch what happens there!" A minibus was stuck and the bollards have already been killed several times. The situation is explosive and ensures shake of the head and frustration among residents.

The city of Kassel has enough of the constant traffic violations! In order to continue to make it difficult for drivers to pass through, new red and white guiding baks will be installed in the coming week. City spokesman Michael Schwab explains: "The adjustments should reduce the passage width and prevent drivers from ignoring the bollards." So far, only an accident has been registered in which a 39-year-old driver got stuck with his fiat between the bollards and caused a damage of 1,600 euros.

chaos at the Königstor: The city is!

The modal filters, which have been installed as part of a traffic attempt since July this year, are to free the royal gate from through traffic. But reality looks different: Despite the new regulations, many drivers do not seem to be ready to adhere to the regulations. AIDA RAZDRIC is certain that most drivers are simply not yet used to the closure, while others deliberately disregard the rules. "99 percent don't do this on purpose," she says.

The city of Kassel has decided not to accept the situation anymore and now wants to take the new measures against chaos. The hope is that the additional baks make traffic safer and that drivers finally move to rethink.
