Security on the abbey rock: tree felling from November 18th

From November 18, there are forest work at the abbey rock in Melk, which are connected to the removal of endangered trees. These measures have become necessary because dead trees on the north side of the abbey rock that lie along the B1 could be a risk of security.

The fort office of the pen will carry out the necessary felling, which leads to temporary closures of the federal road. The city administration, in particular the Melk road maintenance department, is closely integrated into the coordination of the work in order to keep the impairments for road users as low as possible.

importance of work

The trees that are felled are not only a problem for visual reasons, but also represent an actual risk. Dead trees could overturn through wind or other environmental influences and thus endanger the main road below. It is therefore essential to take these forest measures to ensure the safety of street users.

The monks responsible emphasize that they will do everything they can to complete the work as soon as possible. This is intended to ensure that the passage on the B1 is quickly possible again and the impairments for residents and road users remain within an acceptable framework.
