Transport concepts

In order to ensure the quality of life in the district and to take climate protection into account, sustainable mobility is absolutely necessary. Cycling is of great importance in this context. The district of Waldeck-Frankenberg has had a district-wide everyday cycling concept drawn up, which was adopted by the district council in June 2022. The concept was developed in a broad participation process. The implementation of the measures has begun.

The cycling concept consists of several sub-reports, which are available for download on the right-hand side:

Part A: Target network and measures incl. annex: map section and tables

Part B: Bike&Ride analysis

Part C: Special traffic concept Edersee

In essence, 463 measures were identified and agreed upon, covering signage, removal of obstacles, marking, new construction, surface renewal, crossing and path widening. They are to be implemented by various public works authorities.

On 18 October 2023, just under 70 people took part in the online event. All citizens have until 31 October to submit further suggestions and ideas for transport development in Lake Eder by e-mail to bauen@lkwafkb.de.
