Poller against racer: Bremer Überseestadt relies on more security!

Überseestadt, Bremen, Deutschland - The residents of the Überseestadt in Bremen are increasingly upset about the moods of some drivers in their neighborhood. These worries became particularly loud when more and more cars had to be identified in the past few weeks. The police then carried out numerous speed controls and found significant violations, including a driver who was traveling in a 50s zone at over 90 km/h. The feedback from the neighborhood is clear: something has to happen. As part of these efforts, the Bremen traffic authority has now installed bollards on the access to the overseas promenade in order to put a stop to ruthless driving behavior. [Weser-Kurier] (https://www.weser-kurier.de/bremen/stadtteil-walle/ Gegen-autoposerde-beller-poller-in-bremer-ueberseestadt-Doc80xmdnsbilvjd80sn1m) reports that the overseaspromenade has now been fully blocked for car traffic. is.

traffic senator Özlem ünsal (SPD) sees these measures a clear improvement in the quality of life and security of the residents. She emphasizes that the blocking of the overseas promenade is an important step to take action against autoposing and the associated noise. In order to increase the pressure on the speeders, a Tempo 30 zone was also set up on Kommodore-Johnsen-Boulevard.

new construction work and traffic controls

In parallel to these structural measures, the Senator for Building, Mobility and Urban Development as well as the Senator of the Interior Ulrich Mäurer have announced a comprehensive traffic concept in the Überseestadt. The focus is particularly on Consul Smidt-Straße, Kommodore-Johnsen-Boulevard and the overseas promenade. One goal of the traffic attempt is to reduce speed overruns and ruthless behavior. The first results are used to evaluate further measures in other Bremen districts, as reported by the [Senate press office] (https://www.senatspressestelle.bremen.de/pressemitteilungen/massfehungen- against-autoposer-under-in-uebersestadt- 460014).

The planned measures include the installation of modified Berlin pillows that are supposed to reduce the flow of traffic, as well as targeted speed controls by the police. At the moment, the police have an effect with their controls: last Friday, several traffic offenders were caught at the Kommodore-Johnsen-Boulevard. Among other things, a 20-year-old BMW driver was found without a valid driver's license and with the wrong license plate, who drifted at night and thus created other risks, such as the Kreiszeitung reported.

common responsibility for security

The residents have repeatedly asked for measures to improve their quality of living. The current blocking of the overseas promenade go back to a joint call that was loud in the neighborhood. Now the first successes are becoming apparent: the campaign in order to bring autoposians and speeders to reason already shows positive approaches. The next observations will take place in close cooperation with the residents to determine whether the measures taken also achieve the desired effect in the long term.
