Successful renovation: Schönfließer Straße in Frohnau reopened
The renovation measure in the northern area of the garden city of Frohnau was successfully completed and the Schönfließer Straße between Gollanczstraße and Senheimer Straße was released for traffic again. The construction work began in September 2022 and included the fundamental renewal of the road and the side areas of Schönfließer Straße over a length of around 450 meters and a section of Senheimer Strasse over a length of around 40 meters. Even though the Berlin water operations needed more time for their measures, the construction work could be completed within the planned construction period. In the course of the road renewal, ten trees were felled, but 26 linden trees were replanted, which means that more trees now flank the street than before.
The street design with an asphalt ceiling in the middle and the two adjacent water -permeable paving fits seamlessly into the area and results in an attractive overall picture. The principle of the "sponge city" in connection with the Neue Straße already shows positive effects by seeping rainwater on site and not led to the sewage system unused. The road thus serves as a catch area for rainwater and creates vital space for street trees.
Julia Schrod-Thiel, district councilor of the order, environment and transport department (CDU), is pleased about the successful renovation measure and emphasizes the long-term advantages of the new street concept. The comprehensive renewal of Schönfließer Straße forms the basis for further street renovation measures in the catchment area around the Ludwig-Lesser-Park.
The successful renovation of Schönfließer Straße and the introduction of the concept of the "Schwammstadt" have a positive impact on the environment and the quality of life of the residents. The renewal of the street not only improves the infrastructure, but also a contribution to sustainable water management.
