Munnerstadt: saving the city from traffic gridlock

The relief road is now as much a part of munnerstadt as the historic city center. It was not so long ago that all traffic was forced through the city center, and at that time traffic jams formed in the city’s thoroughfare. 30 years ago in august, the first passable section of the new municipal relief road was opened to traffic. This did not mean any real relief for the traffic-plagued old town, because the relief road from the reichenbacher strabe intersection only went as far as the northern entrance to the town at the meininger strabe/coburger strabe intersection. But the first hurdle was completed, including the bruckenau in the laueraue.

The city representatives, however, had actually slept through the date of this semi-official partial opening. Half an hour was spent waiting for the mayor, and munnerstadter hildegard dallner even brought a bottle of champagne to celebrate the day, according to an edition of the munnerstadter zeitung from august 1989. At some point, the representatives of the construction company decided to carry away the traffic signs themselves. The strabe could be used from then on, even without the mayor’s blessing.

Anders olsen: i want to know what the germans are really like

Anders olsen: i want to know what the germans are really like

Anders olsen was twelve years old when the wall fell in 1989. For the norwegian, who is generally interested in war and political history, this has always been a fascinating subject. At the same time, norwegian society of his generation had a certain distrust of germans. At the age of 37, olsen wants to go in search of clues. On a journey along the former border strip, he wants to find out – among other things in personal interviews – what really makes the germans tick. In an interview with our newspaper, olsen explains, among other things, how this trip was to become a documentary film.

Mr. Olsen, what do you find so fascinating about the german history of the turnaround period??
Anders olsen: I have to elaborate a little on that. When i was studying photography in birmingham in the late 1990s, i had a classmate who had grown up in arendsee (sachsen-anhalt, germany). She showed me photos from her childhood and told me how she had grown up in the GDR. I realized that although I thought of myself as an open-minded young man, I had a lot of preconceived notions about east germany. Even if less than the average norwegian. Maybe because I was always curious and always tended to take the side of the underdog.
Yet i had been taught that the west was good and the east was bad. This was a very natural thought for me. So now I met someone who could share memories of a happy childhood. Even though her photos were black and white, i realized that they were less black and female than my first impressions of the germany. This jolted me awake and I began to think about what was actually the truth and what was only served as fact to us growing up.

Your life will now be guided by new criteria. The next step is to enter a vocational training program or continue with school education. It would make me very happy as mayor if you would not forget your home community in the future and, depending on your living situation, continue to live here or return later or come to visit."

Two start with the treasury

From here, she will alternate between a practical semester, probably in kronach, and the university semester in herrsching or ansbach.
Daria wachter is also drawn to the tax office in kronach. In a two-year training program starting on 1. She will start her secondary education in kronach in september and will probably have to go to munich later on, she says.

Waiting house is built

Waiting house is built

During a site inspection at kirchweihplatz together with district construction manager heiko tremel, mayor jochen partheymuller was optimistic about achieving an improvement in bus stops. Because of the longer new buses the bus stop at the school could not be used anymore. Now schoolchildren get on or off at the kirchweih square. In this area, the maximum speed limit has therefore been set at 30 kilometers per hour. This applies to a length of about 300 meters on the main road. The aim is to increase safety for the children. Now the municipality is planning to erect a small shed.

The mobi line 1 burgkunstadt-redwitz-marktgraitz-redwitz-burgkunstadt and the line trubenbach-coburg are also to stop there. After several tests with bus driver sandra reichel, it quickly became clear that the bus shelter could only be built on the right-hand side of the entrance. Also there problems could be solved better in case of possible high differences at the bus entrance. How the site is to be further improved remains to be seen in detail. "We will stay on the ball in this matter", said the mayor.
