Munich plans free wheels for seniors - more mobility for everyone!

The Munich Greens brought a revolutionary idea into play: free wheels for seniors! This innovative measure is intended to offer more freedom and accessibility in the Bavarian capital. If this becomes a pain, a stroll through the city or a walk in the Olympic Park could soon become much easier.

The town hall faction of the Greens - Rosa List has submitted an application that provides for the introduction of wheels at several locations in Munich. These wheels, which are normally used by children, are now also available for adults. The highlight? You have no pedals! This means that even people who are a bit shaky on their feet can easily keep their balance. "This makes them interesting for people restricted mobility," emphasizes the faction.

an offer for everyone

The planned rental of the wheels is intended to expand the existing offer at the Marienhof, in the Olympic Park and in the Hellabrunn zoo. Four -wheel electromobiles can already be loaned free of charge in these places. "The more dynamic wheels that are light and easy to drive are a perfect addition to this," said the Greens. It is also considered to offer the wheels at cemeteries to make it easier for older people to access.

City councilor Sofie Langmeier emphasizes: "Wheels for adults are cheap to buy and bring great added value for people who are not on foot: to be independent and safe." A step in the right direction for more mobility and quality of life in Munich!
