The Berlin transport administration gave the green light for the construction of five other bike paths. This was announced by the house of Senator Manja Schreiner (CDU) on Monday. The affected streets are Hansastraße in Pankow, Grellstraße in Pankow, the Köpenicker Landstraße-Baumschulenweg-Bulgarian Straße in the northern part of Treptow-Köpenick, Hermannstraße in Neukölln and the Hellersdorfer Strasse connection Ernst-Bloch-Straße in Marzahn-Hellersdorf. In some cases there will be minor changes to the planning, especially in the traffic light circuits.

The Roedernallee projects in Reinickendorf and Blankenfeld Chaussee in Pankow, on the other hand, are not being realized for the time being. New plans are required here.

A few weeks ago, the new traffic senator Manja Schreiner had announced that they to check certain cycle path planning and the sensuality of certain projects, especially with regard to the loss of car parking spaces.

This announcement met with a lot of criticism and led to controversial debates about the traffic policy of the new Black-Red Senate.

Now the results of a second review round are available after the results of a first round were released in early July. A total of eleven cycle paths can now be completed from main streets, seven are not built for the time being.

"And that is not the end of the exams, more bike paths will follow promptly," said Schreiner. "Our experts take a look at all road users alike. The pedestrians, cyclists, public transport and private transport." Traffic safety has top priority. The goal is to avoid traffic fatalities.

The almost finished bike path in Ollenhauerstrasse in Reinickendorf did not fall under the moratorium, but was nevertheless subjected to a new review by the district office. It was announced on Monday that it will be "opened promptly". Since the bike path is being built on the previous parking track for cars, they should be allowed to park on one of the two lanes in the evening and at night. This compromise became known last week.

The decisions about the construction of bike paths in Berlin are still controversial and result in controversial discussions. However, the transport administration emphasizes that they take into account the security of all road users during their exams and will follow further cycle paths in the near future.
