Klaiser entrance: defuse the Raser-Eck

The stately building authority Weilheim is renewing the confluence in the Krün district of Klais.

Traffic should be slowed down and the way to school should be safer.

Nobody can say whether the construction work will start this year.

Klais

- Turn right, thunder over the railroad track when the barriers are open and accelerate again in the curve. Many commuters know the confluence in Klais from the B 2 to Mittenwald well. Too good. The routine on this route tempts you to drive fast. This has been a problem for the residents in the Krün district for a long time. Instead of braking, people often rush past the entrance to the town at high speed. Now the municipality of Krün wants to act in cooperation with the state building authority Weilheim and defuse the Rasereck - with traffic islands, a turning lane and wider exits.

This year or next year the building authority is renovating the confluence with the state road.

The traffic management there is no longer up to date.

The community is now using the construction work to remove problems that have been bothering the locals for a long time.

On-site meetings with the local residents in March and April gave the authorities and the municipality a lot of insight into where this busy bottleneck is.

A preliminary investigation was now before the municipal council at its last meeting.

He supplemented the draft with suggestions for improvement.

That will change after completion:

A lot will change after completion. Schoolchildren previously had to walk along the state road to reach the train station. The municipality wants to create sidewalks and green spaces here. There will be no zebra crossing at the site, but there will be lowered sidewalks and transition aids. Schwarzenberger also wants to extend the street lighting to the hiking bus stop "An der Kirchleiten". He offers pedestrians an additional resting bench. Even trees - the current ones had to be felled - should be back at the confluence. The roadway in the direction of Mittenwald widens to 5.50 meters. This should make it easier to exit when the railroad gates are closed and backwater is prevented. Road markings ensure better orientation. To slow down the trafficthe building authority is building a traffic island and a lane towards the village. In addition, the information board is relocated. The detailed planning will show where it is going. The State Building Authority is currently working on this, which is why the person responsible, Nadine Heiss, cannot yet say exactly how high the costs for the major renovation will be. The local council also wants to deal with the level crossing in detail. Another bicycle and pedestrian path on the eastern side of the street would be desirable. “An underpass would not be affordable,” says Schwarzenberger.which is why the person in charge, Nadine Heiss, cannot yet say exactly how high the costs for the major renovation will be.

The municipality has to bear the costs outside the carriageway itself. The pavement renovation and the new green areas are, however, eligible for funding of up to 60 percent, explains Schwarzenberger. That was the result of a request from the Office for Rural Development. After a one-year break, the last part of the Klaiser village renewal would be completed. "A grand finale."
