Prometni kaos v Berlinu: zdaj grozijo prepovedi vožnje po vsej državi?

In a controversial discussion about traffic problems and climate protection, Federal Transport Minister Volker Wissing warned of possible weekend driving bans in Germany. These expectations arise from the need to achieve the climate goals of the existing climate protection law, according to which emissions have to be reduced by 65 percent by 2030 compared to 1990. According to Wissing, a significant reduction in car and truck driving performance by drastic measures such as nationwide driving bans on Saturdays and Sundays would be required. Takšne prepovedi vožnje bi bilo "težko prenesti" in bi jih ljudem težko razložili. Wissing emphasized this in a letter that is available to the dpa and aims to create pressure on the ongoing negotiations of the traffic light coalition, which deals with a reform of the Climate Protection Act.

Problem prometa in viadukta

In the weekend column of the Rheinpfalz pointed out. In Kaiserslautern, the viaduct, which is only passable in one direction, was heavily criticized. In addition, the so -called Berlin pillows, a type of road narrowing for traffic calming. Both measures encounter resistance and change the driving dynamics in the region considerably. The traffic situation is increasingly influenced by the national climate goals, which require a comprehensive review of the existing traffic strategies.

The discussion about the driving bans already resulted in an outraged reaction of the Greens, which described Wissing's statements as an unfounded panic. Kritika je prišla tudi iz GreenPeacea, kjer je Wissing obtožen, da je prevzel odgovornost za neuspele ukrepe za zaščito podnebja. In order to maintain the sector goals for traffic for 2024, according to the Federal Environment Agency, a considerable amount of CO2 equivalents would have to be saved at short notice. These developments are highlighting the complex challenges in the German traffic system, which must deal with compliance with climate goals and the improvement of the infrastructure while the acceptance of the population should be preserved at the same time.
