Gielder knot becomes a roundabout: traffic safety in the district is increasing
traffic safety in the district of Wolfenbüttel strengthened
The district of Wolfenbüttel has taken a crucial step towards increased traffic safety. A project that has long been planned to redesign an accident -prone intersection has now been successfully implemented. On Friday, August 2nd, the new roundabout at Gielder Knoten will be officially released for traffic.
Details of the project
The project included the conversion of the intersection between Landesstraße 500 and Kreisstraße 85 in Gielde into a modern roundabout. This 1.6 million euro project, in which the district is significantly involved with a quarter of the costs, was realized in close cooperation with the Lower Saxony State Authority for Road Construction and Transport (NLSTBV).
positive feedback from everyone involved
District Administrator Christiana Steinbrügge was pleased to comment on the completion: "With the Gield knot, we have now successfully implemented four out of five planned roundabout projects. These are gratifying progress to increase traffic safety in the district." The hope is that this measure minimizes the severe accident risks, especially by turning traffic.
smooth implementation
The construction of the new traffic routing was started in mid -March, and at that time a bypass, or bypass, was set up for school buses. Thanks to smooth processes and cheap weather, the project could even be completed before the planned date. Günter Hartkens, head of the RGB Goslar, praised the excellent cooperation of everyone involved:
- "However, the acceptance of road users will be a challenge."
- "We will therefore refer to the new traffic routing with signs and flashing lights."
