Safe bike paths: Construction of the bridge over the motorway in St. Valentin begins in 2025
A new chapter for cycling is opened in St. Valentin. The construction of a cycle path bridge begins from mid -2025, which will connect the Aichet district with Ennsdorf. This project aims to create a safe and fast bicycle route and thus manage the current challenges for cyclists.
Cyclists currently have to cross various dangerous areas on their route to Ennsdorf, including the busy state road that crosses the Westbahn. These sections are particularly risky on weekdays due to the high traffic. But the new cycle path bridge makes it possible to safely bypass these danger spots.
already preparations made
At the intended location of the bridge, pillars are already anchored in the ground, which can be used for the construction of the cycle path bridge. This shows that the planning has already progressed well and the city administration has recognized the urgency of this infrastructure measure.
In a recent meeting in the town hall of Sankt Valentin, the mayor Kerstin Suchan-Mayr and the mayor of Ennsdorf, Daniel Lachmayr, discussed the decisive details of the project together with the planning company Ikw. It is expected that the bridge not only improves direct access between the municipalities, but also makes an important contribution to promoting cycling in the region.
financing of the project
An important goal of the construction project is to integrate the new bike path into the regional cycling network. This affiliation will enable the project managers to apply for additional funding from the state and the federal government. The total costs for the cycle path bridge amount to around 800,000 euros, whereby it is expected that the funding can cover a significant part of the financial burden.
The creation of the cycle path bridge over the motorway will not only increase traffic safety, but also offer an incentive for more people to use the bike as a means of transport. Ultimately, this could lead to a reduction in motorized traffic and a more positive influence. The infrastructure measures are therefore a significant step towards a more bike -friendly future.
The citizens of St. Valentin and Ennsdorf can look forward to the developments of the project and hope that the construction will run according to the plan and that the new cycle path bridge will soon enable the safe transition between the two communities.
Current reports are available for further information on this topic that offer additional insights into the planning and progress. Citizens are invited to pursue developments and actively participate in the design of their bike paths.
