Protective strips for cyclists in Scharnweberstraße: New construction phase starts - Berlin citizens benefit.

The city of Berlin has announced that it can create protected cycling strips on Scharnweberstraße in Friedrichshain. The first construction phase on the south side was completed in summer. The remaining sections will now follow. The cycling areas are re -paved and marked, and the cycling lane will be around 2.5 meters wide. Low concrete elements are intended to prevent the strip from being used or used for holding. This should be able to drive cyclists safely.

The local effect of this measure is expected to have positive effects for cyclists in the area. The construction of the protected cycling strips improves the infrastructure for cyclists and increases safety. The new cycle paths represent a secure Alternative to cycling on the street and can help relieve the traffic in Scharnweberstraße.

The construction work is expected to be completed in the summer of 2024, whereby a single section can only be implemented at a later date due to a building construction measure.
