B431 is open two months earlier: Finally free travel!

A turbulent day for different regions in Schleswig-Holstein, where several important developments influence public life. The people in Dithmarschen, Steinburg and North Frisia are faced with some changes and challenges that are worth taking a close look at.

In a pleasant turn, the state company Road Construction and Transport announced that the B431 between St. Margarethen and Brokdorf was released for traffic on October 11, two months earlier than originally planned. This premature cancellation of the full closure enables the urgently needed remaining work to be carried out without negative effects on road users. Previous was an extensive renovation process that included both the road and bike path.

living conditions in deportation

The reports of the living conditions in the Happy Haust of Glückstadt are less gratifying. Several initiatives have again spoken and showed grievances that exist since the opening of the facility in 2021. The inadequate medical and psycho-social care of the detainees is the focus of criticism. According to a spokesman for the initiative "No deportation prison in Glückstadt and elsewhere", there have already been several hunger strikes and suicide attempts. However, the new head of the detention center, Thomas Dönitz, rejected the allegations and emphasized that measures had already been taken to improve, such as the introduction of social counseling since June.

The situation in the deportation is worrying and has attracted public attention, especially because of the human destiny that are behind it. The authorities are required to ensure both security and human dignity of the detainees.

News on wind power projects

The district council of Dithmarschen also dealt with the wind power plans of the federal and state governments on Tuesday evening. The decision was made against new wind turbines in landscape protection areas. Despite a change in the law that allows the construction of new wind turbines in these protected areas, the district council declined this option with 25 to 17 votes and two abstentions. The decision is justified by the above -average contribution of the district to expand the wind energy and thus shows the commitment of the local government for the protection of the environment.

This decision could have far -reaching effects on future wind power projects in the region and underlines the conflict between renewable energies and the protection of natural habitats. Here, too, the dialogue between the different interest groups is of great importance.

On another level, the news leads us to call for the union ver.di from Thursday private bus companies. The exact places of the strike measures will be announced by the union on Wednesday evening. This could particularly affect student transportation in Dithmarschen and North Friesland. The unexplained situation could cause many students to have difficulty reaching their schools while the union is fighting for better working conditions.

A regrettable event: the seaside ship "Funny Girl", which has to remain in the port after a total failure on Sunday on the North Sea, is required longer than intended for repairs. The necessary spare parts have not arrived in time, so the shipping company Adler & Eils has to use the catamaran "Northern Light" again for the route between Büsum and Helgoland. These circumstances, combined with the fact that the "Funny Girl" drove on the water for four hours on Sunday with 250 guests, are a major challenge for the travel planning of the passengers.

Overall, today's report shows that the regions in Schleswig-Holstein are confronted with various challenges and developments that range from transport infrastructure to social matters. It remains to be seen how these topics will develop in the coming days and what measures those responsible will initiate.
