Change to the parking regulations in August-Bebel-Straße
From Thursday, 10 July 2025, half-side parking will be permitted on the pavement on the eastern side of the road between house numbers 10 and 20.
As part of a hazard prevention inspection, it was determined that the current passage width for fire engines in the aforementioned section of August-Bebel-Straße is not sufficient. The reason for this is that parking is currently permitted on both sides of the carriageway. As a result, safe access for emergency services is not guaranteed in the event of an emergency.
From Thursday, 10 July 2025, half-side parking will be permitted on the pavement on the eastern side of the road between house numbers 10 and 20. The existing kerb is about 10 cm high and can be driven over when driving slowly. The pavement is sufficiently wide so that there is enough space for pedestrians despite parked vehicles. The concrete block paving surface is also suitable for parking. Where there are trees, parking is interrupted to protect the roots and tree locations.
This adjustment represents a sensible compromise: It ensures the necessary passage for fire engines and emergency vehicles and at the same time continues to allow - albeit restricted - parking in this section of road.
