A variety of signs for the construction site on the A2 for Wöllersdorf (Lower Austria) ensures that drivers are confused or overwhelmed. Countless drivers miss the “correct” entrance to the construction site and have to accept a large detour.
Mr. S. complains. Every day he drives home from his workplace in Wöllersdorf via the A2 house from Wiener Neustadt to his house on Lake Anemone. Recently, however, he had to take a huge detour because he did not know that the exit of Wiener Neustadt West could be reached alone through the right track.
“Neither during the driveway, nor when the lanes are divided into the construction site is an indication that I have to keep myself properly,” the driver complains. The next departure option is only back in Seebenstein.
Even commuters who come from Vienna every day have already overlooked this exit. Despite the many signs that are set more than two kilometers for the construction site.
25 minutes of loss due to long detour
“I was so thought that I did not notice the signs first,” says a commuter that controls this route every day. He also ‘landed’ in the Neunkirchen district instead of Wiener Neustadt.
“There are so many signs that you are not even filled with reading,” says Mrs. P., who travels from Baden to Sollenau every day. The detour via Seebenstein means a loss of time of at least 25 minutes for drivers.
Asfinag tries to make sufficient signage
In fact, the construction site is generously indicated. Driehead indicators and illuminated trailers point three kilometers in advance that the lanes will soon share. “And this week, soil markings will be added straight for the construction site,” promises ASFINAG. Here you attach great importance to everything that fits.
“Once the construction site is set, we will ride it again to see if all signs are convincing,” explains Asfinag spokesperson Walter Mocnik. An external traffic expert is also consulted.
Six lanes per ten kilometers are renovated between Wöllersdorf and Wiener Neustadt. The construction site will continue to stay over the next two years. There is still enough time to remember where you take the right output.
