New bypass Haid: Relief for traffic and quality of life

New bypass Haid: Relief for traffic and quality of life

in the Upper Austrian region, more precisely in the municipalities of Abselden and Pucking, there are significant changes in traffic. The strongly frequented Kremstalstrasse, which is used daily by up to 30,000 vehicles, has heavily burdened the existing infrastructure. In order to counteract this challenge, a bypass from Haid is now being planned. This bypass should not only lead the traffic around the town center, but also bring noticeable improvements in quality of life and traffic safety.

According to the State Council of Transport Günther Steinkellner, the bypass will result in around 21,000 vehicles bypassing the busy center every day. "This project creates the opportunity to have less traffic jams and at the same time offer residents a better quality of life," emphasizes Steinkellner. In addition, the bypass creates space for a new tram connection to Ansfelden, which is a significant progress for mobility planning in the region.

Future investments for sustainable development

The state government has approved a financing budget of 100 million euros for this major project as part of the Upper Austrian state parliament. This is a multi -year financing that includes both the bypasses and a one -off support of 6 million euros for the construction of the Traun junction. It looks like the first property purchases are already underway, and the construction work is expected to begin in 2026. This traffic concept pursues the goal of developing a sustainable solution for the Linz-Land area.

The Ansfelden and pucking communities can look forward to the changes. Due to the bypass, there will be less through traffic, which results in a reduction in noise and pollutants for the residents. The mayor of Ansfelden, Christian Partoll, says: "Our goal is to solve the traffic node in the region. The new B139 will significantly reduce the daily traffic jams and at the same time increase quality of life and traffic safety." These changes also promise valuable saving for the commuters in the area.

Thomas Altof, the mayor of Pucking, is similarly optimistic. "The traffic does not end at the municipal boundary, and we feel the overload of the B139 and the Traun departure." He also speaks of the importance of noise protection measures and the planned reforestation. With the new company development area, which is created by these developments, new economic perspectives for pucking are also opening up. "A tram right on the doorstep will enhance our region and facilitate the everyday life of our fellow citizens," adds Altof.

With the start of construction of the B139 newly, Upper Austria is making a strong sign of an improved quality of life in the central area. Haid's planned bypass is not only a step to relieve traffic, but also progress in regional mobility, which significantly improves living conditions for numerous people. The anticipation for the positive changes is in the air, while the planning progresses and the implementation begins in the coming years.
