In a fall from a stone in the Bludenz district on Friday on Schattenlagantstraße (L82), the car of a 61-year-old was hit and severely damaged. Because more stone chips fell, the L82 between Brand and Lünersee was immediately closed.
The lockdown is expected to last two weeks. According to the energy supplier illwerke vkw, which operates Schattenlagantstraße, a stone of about 500 cubic meters came loose in the Seekopf area around 10 a.m. Most of the material came to a stop on a scree cone in front of the L82. However, a boulder hit the car of a 61-year-old who was on his way to the fire. The vehicle was badly damaged, but the woman and her 60-year-old passenger were unharmed.
A check followed, which showed that more stone chipping took place in the area behind the Schattenlaganthütte. Police immediately blocked the road in both directions. At the point where the first rock broke off, geologists eventually identified more rock that was in danger of breaking off. It must now be inflated.
The valley station of the railway is accessible
Due to the difficult access to the site and the unsafe flying weather, the energy supplier expected on Friday that the work would take 14 days. Until then, the department will remain closed.
The valley station of the Lünerseebahn is still accessible. Public transport continues to the safe area for the debris cone. From there, the train can be reached via a 20-minute walk on a secure forest path, he said.
