District parliament on the Alsergrund: Hot discussions and important decisions!

At summer 32 degrees Celsius, the first district representative meeting of the new term took place at the Alsergrund. In this five-hour session, a total of 14 applications and two resolutions from six district parties were submitted, as reported meinbezirk.at . The bright weather seemed to be fueled by the discussions because there were many important topics on the agenda.

One of the central decisions of the session was the SPÖ application to create a green art and educational oasis before Alsergrund's art of VHS. This application was accepted and offers the possibility of not only bringing aesthetic aspects to the district, but also creating a place of education and social exchange.

traffic calming and U5 construction site

A hotly discussed topic was the planned U5 construction site at the Arne-Karlsson Park, which is scheduled to begin in 2026. The district council unanimously called for a citizens' meeting to obtain the opinion of the residents and to make the planning more transparent. This shows that the decision -makers care for citizen participation and that they want to hear the voice of the population on important questions.

An application by the Greens and links to traffic calming in the Rossau was not heard and was rejected. Likewise, the application of the NEOS to install mirrors of critical intersections to increase traffic safety was rejected. It remains to be seen here how the traffic situation in Rossau can be improved in the long term.

The session brought a variety of applications to the table with different focuses. An overview shows the accepted and rejected proposals:
