Tonne demands the A39: The traffic artery for Uelzen is so important!

Minister of Economics Grant Hendrik Tonne caused a sensation at the first economic evening in the Uelzen district house. The evening, which took place under the motto "Grill and Dialog", brought together over 60 entrepreneurs, managing directors, members of the state parliament and administrative officers. Tonne succeeded Olaf Lies, who is now a prime minister. On this occasion, he emphasized the urgency of a powerful transport network, especially the long -discussed Autobahn 39 between Wolfsburg and Lüneburg. [az-online.de] (https://www.az-online.de/uminmin-grant-hendrik-tonne-ketn-zur-a39---- alpha-93784030.html) reports that he was primarily the acceleration of planning and approval to meet the expectations of the population.

What happens to the A39? Tonne described the highway as a necessary traffic artery and criticized the Deutsche Bahn, which opposes the new line between Hamburg and Hanover. At a time when the transport infrastructure is constantly in focus, the A39 became the central theme of the evening. The minister also emphasized the importance of an improved energy infrastructure and an accelerated planning process to reduce unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles.

energy and climate protection in focus

It became particularly exciting when ton was expressed in renewable energies. He spoke out for the regional use of sealed-out electricity from wind and solar power and underlined the key role that Lower Saxony plays in the German energy transition. In order to achieve the climate goals, such initiatives are essential. It seems as if the Minister of Economy is trying to promote the balance between economic growth and ecological awareness.

At the same time, the A39 is also criticized. The Lüneburg climate collective calls for stopping all new motor construction projects immediately. On the occasion of the discussions on the first construction phase of the A39 on June 22, 2023 in Adendorf, where a doubling of the street space for the A39 is planned, the group sees itself as part of an international climate movement. While tonne focuses on the transport infrastructure, the critics warn that new motorways could violate air conditioning and endanger nature reserves. Your alternative requirement? A comprehensive and barrier -free public transport instead of new streets. luene-blog.de illuminates the concerns associated with the construction of the A39.

The mobility turnover as a question of the future

The discussion about the A39 is in the context of a wider mobility turn, which is not only of great importance in Lower Saxony, but also nationwide. A study by Fraunhofer Iese, carried out on behalf of DB Regio AG, found that the bus is highlighted as a sustainable range of mobility. These findings are particularly important, since in rural and suburban regions many people still rely on their own car despite the climatic challenges. Factors such as poor clocks and high driving prices play a crucial role. iese.fraunhofer.de shows that the bus has to find its place in the mobility landscape in order to transport people in the future.

Ultimately, it will be exciting to see how politics reacts to the combination of growing infrastructure and the legitimate concerns of the citizens. The conversations at the economic evening ended comfortably with beer, bratwurst and salad, but the challenges that the region faces are anything but small.
