After the accidental death of a 15-year-old on the S-Bahn track in Riemerling, the debate about crossing the tracks between Riemerling-Ost and Riemerling-West was warmed up.

A solution has been sought for 40 years.

Hohenbrunn

- In the past there have been many considerations to create a railway crossing between Riemerling-West and Riemerling-East.

Construction technician Mario Illigen was able to show the Hohenbrunn building committee that he was able to trace municipal efforts back to 1979 using the documents.

The debate was rehashed after the accidental death of a 15-year-old.

Investigations should be checked again and given numbers.

More recent examinations should now be checked again and given numbers.

Because financially, such a measure should largely, if not entirely, be paid for by the municipality.

And there is talk of well over a million euros.

For cost reasons, no decision has ever been made in favor of a railway underpass, said Mayor Stefan Straßmair (CSU): "The community has always said that they don't have the money." is technically possible.

In his opinion, this does not require a feasibility study.

A structure under the railroad track is associated with difficulties because there are a lot of electricity and water lines in the area.

In addition, the municipality would "need a lot of land".

There are many things to consider: "If it wasn't difficult, the thing would already be there."

There is a desire in the population for a level crossing.

Karlheinz Vogelsang (ÜWG / FW) noted that there was definitely a desire among the population for a railway crossing in Riemerling.

Third Mayor Regina Wenzel (SPD) spoke out in favor of a feasibility study.

Straßmair proposed to re-examine existing options from today's perspective.

It was important to the committee that double-track construction should always be taken into account in a railway underpass.

In addition, there is a need for accessibility.

Various ideas have been considered over 40 years - and then discarded.

The municipality has also repeatedly considered a level crossing.

However, according to Illigen, this was repeatedly rejected with reference to the railway crossing law.

So far, plans for an overpass have always been rejected.

Various ideas and suggestions have been considered and examined over the past 40 years.

The municipal documents speak of an underpass between the Nornenweg and the Hochackerstraße or the forest road and the Friedrich-Fröbel-Straße in Riemerling.

Also at the Luitpoldsiedlung there was once talk of an underpass of the railroad track as an extension of the Weidenstrasse in the direction of the orchard meadow.

Of course, the gangway could not be missing from the considerations.

Here, according to a variant in Riemerling-West, the exit of the underpass would have gone into the Bannwald in order to connect to the existing network of paths.

The gangway would have to be lowered in order to create the six percent gradient to the underpass.

And always the question of good money.

Benno Maier (CSU) can still remember all the ideas well, he is the longest-serving member of the council.

When thinking about it, Maier reminded himself that there was resistance from residents.

To the south of the Ottobrunn level crossing, the council members saw dangers for an underpass earlier because it would at least run into a T-shape.

For the idea on Weidenstrasse, the municipal council even looked at the market square in Holzkirchen (Miesbach district), because this with its underpass could have been the counterpart: "The plans were very specific, but the underpass would not have been handicapped accessible." And then there was always the question of good money.
