Landstrasse: Citizens demand car -free zones and more green areas!

something happens in the country road! The citizens of the 3rd district of Vienna can breathe a sigh of relief, because three current petitions have made it to the Petitions Committee. These show that the concerns of the residents are taken seriously. As meinzirk.at reports, 500 signatures are required so that a petition in Vienna is treated.

Students and parents benefit: Car -free school forecourt

Another tangible proposal aims at the greening of the overplating of the expressway line between Vienna Mitte and Beatrix Bridge. This petition has currently found around 150 supporters. The project could not only improve air quality, but also contribute to the recovery of the residents.

traffic safety in focus: speed limitation required

The third petition aims at a milder driving style: a speed limit at 30 km/h in Erdbergstrasse between Schlachhausgasse and Cardinal Nagl-Platz is planned. This petition currently only has 40 signatures, but the motives are clear: the petition leader also demands a bike path and more greening to increase both traffic safety and reduce traffic noise.

Additional citizens' concerns in Vienna

These current petitions are only a small part of a larger movement. In Vienna there are other political approaches that are important for citizens. For example, there is a petition that demands heat -free for fiaker horses from 30 ° Celsius and has already received 47 support. The ban on Fiaker has also received 33 support and is seriously discussed, as petitions.wien.gv.at Shows.

The Wiener's commitment is unmistakable when you look at the numerous ongoing petitions. From the upgrading of the express train route to safety concerns in different parts of the city to less hot summer days for the fiaker horses - the will to change something is noticeable.

Management city councilors and district leaders have already commented on many of these concerns and raised their voices, as on wien.gv.at . The answers and initiatives are complex and shaped by a common goal: to make life in the city more livable.

It remains to be seen how the developments for the petitions in the country road will progress. Nevertheless, the lively participation of the citizens shows that commitment and participation in Vienna are very popular.
