Construction work in Wesenberg: Severely disabled man fights for access!

in Ahrensberg near Wesenberg, the residents face major challenges. Due to the renewal of the passage, many of them have only limited access to their land. Hartmut Wiedbusch, a heavily disabled pensioner who lives in the “Alte Havel” street, is particularly affected. Wiedbusch is dependent on his car to get to doctor's appointments and to do purchases. The situation becomes even more critical because the nursing service has to come to it with a vehicle every day.

The situation is particularly precarious, since traffic in the Weinbergstrasse has already been completely blocked. For Wiedbusch and the other residents, this means that the accessibility of their streets is severely restricted. A ring channel currently has to be excavated, which further complicated the accessibility of the “Alte Havel” road for vehicles. In an emergency, the fire brigade and emergency services can only get to the houses on foot, which can cost precious time in an emergency situation. In addition, the rescue helicopter landing area is parked by resident vehicles, which is still tightening the situation.

authorities in focus

Frank Wiedbusch, the son of Hartmut Wiedbusch, criticized the authorities sharply. In his answer, Mayor Steffen Rißmann (CDU) evades all responsibility and explains that the building authority cannot react to abstract dangers. The closure of the “Alte Havel” residential road was originally supposed to take place earlier, but was only scheduled on July 7th. Rißmann describes the situation as unhappy, but emphasizes that they could not find any other solution. These statements reinforce the outrage of the residents and raise questions about planning and communication.

The construction work is carried out by Strabag. Rescue services and fire brigades in the area were regularly informed about the construction phases, and a rendezvous procedure was agreed with the management group of the Neustrelitz Land office. In the event of urgent emergencies, the fire brigade and the emergency services can drive the construction site to be able to act quickly.

problematic construction projects

The fire brigade Ahrensburg and the specialist advisor of the THW carried out an inspection and installed four new pillars at short notice, so that the residents could enter the building again. The use lasted about 90 minutes, while the Nordstrandring was blocked by the emergency vehicles.

These incidents urgently represent the need to rethink the framework conditions for construction projects and their effects on residents. The implementation of the Disability Equality Act of 2016, which is intended to promote barrier -free construction, has to focus more on the focus. The guide for barrier -free construction provides valuable orientation for planners and building management and could help to make facilities and roads accessible to everyone, as described on Guideline barrier-reisenbauen.de

Overall, it shows that there is an urgent need for action in both Ahrensberg and in Ahrensburg to ensure security and accessibility for all residents. The challenges must be addressed as soon as possible to prevent further inconvenience or even dangerous situations.
