The Friday before future climate protection movement will block the Tyrolean Inntal Autobahn (A12) near Innsbruck with a bicycle demonstration during the afternoon. The organizers expect more than a thousand participants, it is said. For drivers, commuters and Co. this announcement should cause less joy.
On Friday for the future, the attention wants to draw attention on the highway demo on Friday 13 June, and a petition to increase transit traffic via Tyrol and ask the German Federal Steag The planned railway line in Bavaria-Keyword: Brenner-Norstrauf-As quickly as possible, said organizer Sofia Scherer.
“The traffic situation is becoming increasingly precarious in Tyrol. Every year more than eleven million cars and two million trucks on the Brenner – and increasingly,” she mentioned the motives for the campaign.
From the country house to the highway
The demonstration train is to go away from Innsbrucker Landhausplatz at 3 p.m. over the city center to the entrance of Innsbruck-Mitte highway at 3 p.m. After the protesters have cycled a short stretch on the A12 to the west, they leave the highway shortly before the Wilten tunnel. The bicycle demonstration went on the same route last year, at that time more than 2000 people participated.
This year you no longer count on such a large crowd, but “more than a thousand people will be there,” Scherer estimated.
The police are not forbidden like last year
The bicycle demonstration already received green light from the authorities. The demo is not forbidden – as ultimately in the previous year, police spokesman Christian Viehweider. A decision of the constitutional court of the previous year serves as a basis.
The court had lifted a previously pronounced ban on the demonstration on the part of the authorities. The police are expected delays again, but with the help of barriers and diversions, they hope to be able to properly control the volume of traffic. There will be more information in advance.
“The goal is clearly missed”
In addition to countless angry drivers, there was also criticism from politics last year. “In our opinion, the goal is clearly missed if the entire highway on the edge of the capital of the state is paralyzed by the important care of climate protection,” emphasized the Astrid Mair (ÖVP), emphasized at that time.
