New timetable for e-buses: Citizens are calling for more transparency and participation

In the city of Baden there are currently discussions about the switch to electric buses and the associated charging devices. In order to protect the environment and improve air quality, new e-charging stations were built. However, the FPÖ Baden, represented by Forsthuber, criticizes this step sharply and demands comprehensive transparency about the associated contracts. "We are calling for the immediate disclosure of all contracts, smaller city buses and more economic thinking. After all, it is about tax money," he explains. This shows that citizens have to assume financial responsibility for the new buses and the infrastructure.

integration of citizens by petition

The FPÖ politician indicated that he would like to actively integrate citizens in this decision-making process. A petition is planned to get a clear sign from the affected districts. Forsthuber emphasizes: "In affected districts we need a clear sign of people, otherwise this black and green madness will never end." In doing so, he questions the city's current politics and appeals to the residents to campaign for their interests.

The topic around the e-buses is not only a question of environmental protection, but also an economic topic that has an impact on the household budget of citizens. It remains to be seen how the citizens react to the FPÖ's suggestions and whether the planned petition finds enough support to hear hearing.
