Simon Schories, a member of the ADFC and co-organizer of the local coordination team "Radentscheid Bayern" in Dachau, handed over a box with 898 signatures to Mayor Florian Hartmann in the town hall.
Dachau - The Radentscheid calls for a better and safer cycling infrastructure for Bavaria.
There should be a referendum on this.
25,000 signatures would have been necessary for the application for approval of the referendum.
"We are happy that we, as a local alliance, were also able to support the approximately 100,000 signatures that were collected throughout Bavaria," said Schories.
The aim of the referendum is to create the framework for real transport promotion throughout Bavaria by means of a bicycle law.
Schoreis emphasized at the meeting in the town hall that this request means a lot of work for the municipalities, but also brings them a lot of benefits.
“The municipalities will be relieved by the decision.
The cycle paths in the district of Dachau are a patchwork quilt, standards are often not defined and resources are lacking,” complains Schories.
This should now change with a cycling law, if the organizers of the "Radentscheid Bayern" have their way.
Signatures were collected across Bavaria from mid-June to the end of October.
But now comes the next hurdle.
A new law needs 1,000,000 signatures.
According to District Councilor Peter Heller (Alliance for Dachau), they must have come together by Easter 2023.
Citizens can sign in the town halls and citizens' offices.
The alliance is supported, among others, by ADFC, Verkehrsclub Deutschland, Bund Naturschutz and the parties ÖDP, Greens, SPD, Die Linke and Volt.
