Weblog
I've barely cleaned up my weblog and I'm already discovering new gimmicks that I really want to try out. As always, I do it on site and I accept that things can go wrong.
The interested reader will probably notice one or the other change here in the blog in the coming days. And if I don't like them anymore, they'll soon be gone again.
If you notice any positive changes, please let me know. Because I'm happy if other people like this weblog.
Gerberstrasse
The north-west of the city center has been a problem since the conversion of Sülmerstraße into a pedestrian zone. The big hit, namely turning Turmstrasse and Lohtorstrasse into a pedestrian zone and thus better connecting the city to the Neckar, has not materialized to this day.
With the designation of Untere Neckarstraße as a pedestrian zone, Lammgasse and Gerberstraße even became dividing lines and with the closure of Kranenstraße a secret race track for people with local knowledge.
That's why I'm pleased that, at least in the municipal council, some city councilors are now bringing forward target-oriented proposals for a solution.
In any case, the Paula-Fuchs-Allee must be completed as quickly as possible and the new Kranenstrasse must not be delayed any longer. As has been promised for years, this will relieve the northern inner city to a large extent.
Lohtorstraße and Turmstraße can very quickly be redesignated as pedestrian zones and — as already mentioned by me and well done in Stuttgart — not only creating individual pedestrian crossings in Gerberstrasse and Lammgasse, but turning these streets entirely into pedestrian crossings where they are crossed from east to west.
I think the creation of a neighborhood garage is utopian and I'm counting on the fact that "my old neighborhood" will very quickly develop into a very attractive residential area where people don't necessarily want to have their own cars as a means of transport.
And at the latest when these ideas have been implemented, very attractive shops will again settle in Gerberstrasse and Lammgasse, especially since they can then also rely on "car customers" and both streets then Sülmerstrasse and Untere Neckarstrasse as well as the connections Turmstrasse and Lohtorstrasse no longer just separate, but put together again to form a wonderful whole.
rock diluvial
The Nagelfluh rocks (Triassic and Jurassic rocks) in Klingenberg are private property, and ownership is not only a liability, as is well known, but also by law.
Since 1937, these Nagelfluh rocks have been designated as Heilbronn's "Felsendiluviale" (Diluvium = Ice Age) natural monument — one of the city's six natural monuments — but this does not mean that the taxpayer has to bear the necessary security measures.
It is still incomprehensible to me that the general public apparently had to bear these costs years ago and I still cannot understand today that there is talk again of at least a partial assumption of costs by us taxpayers.
