Poller in Berlin: Cyclists can breathe a sigh of relief - car owners in the crisis!

In Berlin-Pankow, Stargarder Straße between Schönhauser Allee and Pappelallee is converted into a bicycle road after an examination has uncovered massive violations by drivers. In one day, up to 1,500 vehicles were counted, of which over two thirds were on a passage, although the road is only released for residents. The district government has now decided to incorporate Poller to prevent the passage for drivers, which many cyclists appear as a blessing in this popular residential area. According to Berlin Live , the measure is part of a strategy against the disregard for bicycle streets.

Measures for traffic safety

In order to legally secure the new bollards, a nine -meter -tall section of the road was also developed as a public street country. This was recently carried out with an announcement in the Official Journal on December 6, as a spokeswoman for Manuela Anders-Granitzki, the district councilor, confirmed. This measure could significantly calm traffic in one of the busiest streets of Prenzlauer Berg.

The Stargarder Straße, known for their diverse businesses and gastronomy, plays a central role in city life and is strongly frequented by residents and visitors. The residents are therefore happy about the protective measures that are supposed to make driving on a bicycle road safer, reported The Stargarder .
