Der Schlangenbader Tunnel in Berlin-Wilmersdorf ist seit Mitte April gesperrt, was zu erheblichen Verkehrsproblemen in der Region führt. Rund 50.000 Autos müssen täglich alternative Routen durch Wohngebiete nehmen, was zu großem Ärger bei den Anwohnern führt. Eine Bürgerinitiative namens „Schlangenbader Tunnel“ beklagt vor allem die Sicherheitssituation für Menschen mit eingeschränkter Mobilität und Kinder auf dem Schulweg. Die Situation hat sich sogar noch verschlechtert, seit die Schlangenbader Straße und die Sodener Straße als Einbahnstraßen ausgewiesen wurden. Zahlreiche Fahrzeuge ignorieren diese Regelung und fahren in die Gegenrichtung. Dadurch kommt es zu gefährlichen Situationen, bei denen parkende Autos beschädigt werden. Einige Fahrzeuge haben …

The snake bathing tunnel in Berlin-Wilmersdorf has been closed since mid-April, which leads to considerable traffic problems in the region. Around 50,000 cars have to take alternative routes through residential areas every day, which leads to great trouble among the residents.

A citizens' initiative called "Schlangenbader Tunnel" complains above all the security situation for people with limited mobility and children on the way to school. The situation has even deteriorated since Schlangenbader Straße and Sodener Straße were designated as one -way streets. Numerous vehicles ignore this regulation and drive in the opposite direction. This leads to dangerous situations in which parked cars are damaged. Some vehicles have already suffered considerable damage, including a wheelchair user that was hit by a turning maneuver in a dead end.

The citizens' initiative calls for the reopening of the snake pool tunnel. However, it seems unlikely that this wish will be met. First of all, the tunnel should be renovated, but the black-red Senate is now thinking about closing it permanently. This ensures additional frustration among residents.

The blocking of the tunnel was prompted by the former traffic senator Bettina Jarasch (Greens) on April 20, due to safety defects on the ventilation system and the emergency call facilities. However, the exact reasons for the emergency lock are not mentioned.

The situation in the snake pool tunnel continues to be discussed controversially. The blocking leads to considerable traffic problems and endangers the safety of road users. A final solution does not seem to be in sight at the moment.
