Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis Approves City's Altenberger-Dom-Straße Redesign

The local authority of the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis has ruled that the city's plans for redesigning the Altenberger-Dom-Straße are legally sound. The city aims to adapt the street to modern standards, enhance safety, and manage traffic better.

The city's argumentation for not needing a plan approval procedure has been deemed valid by the local authority. The planned measures do not significantly increase traffic capacity for motor vehicles. Instead, they focus on improving safety and traffic management.

The city has offered opportunities for citizen participation despite not requiring a formal plan approval procedure. This approach aligns with the trend seen in many cities across Nordrhein-Westfalen, which have been modernising and improving their infrastructure for road, cycling, and pedestrian traffic. Examples include Köln, Düsseldorf, Münster, Bonn, and Aachen, each implementing projects to enhance their traffic safety and management infrastructure.
