Grass Alley Housing "Berliner Kissen"
In a bid to reduce noise pollution and counteract excessive speeds by road users, especially in the evenings, the public works department installed new speed-reducing humps on Grassgasse Street on Thursday. These humps, known as Berlin-style cushions, are designed for bicycles and buses and are passable due to their wide wheelbase.
The trial operation of these mobile road humps will run until winter, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness and practicality of the road hump measure. The outcome of this trial operation could influence the city's decision to implement similar road hump measures in other areas.
The trial operation serves as a test for the potential expansion of the road hump measure in the city. The transferability of the road hump measure to other locations will be tested after the trial operation. The aim of the humps is to slow down traffic and promote a safer and quieter environment for residents and pedestrians.
The decision to install the traffic calming "Berlin cushions" in Grasgasse was made jointly by the city administration, the police, and the municipal utilities. Speed checks by traffic enforcement are being carried out more frequently in the city center in the evenings to ensure compliance with the speed limits.
The effectiveness of the road hump measure will be evaluated after the trial operation. The police were present in a meeting with the top management to discuss the implementation and operation of the road humps. The evaluation and testing of the road hump measure will determine its potential for implementation in other areas.
The trial operation of the mobile road humps on Grassgasse Street is a crucial step in determining the future of traffic calming measures like the road humps in the city. The road hump measure's effectiveness and transferability will be assessed based on the trial operation's results. If successful, the road hump measure could be implemented in other locations following the trial operation.
This trial operation is a significant step towards creating a safer and more livable city. By reducing speeds and promoting a quieter environment, the city aims to improve the quality of life for its residents and visitors. Stay tuned for updates on the trial operation's results and the city's decision on the future of traffic calming measures.
