The reconstruction of the roadway Am Eußerthaler Platz was not done in its original state. Loose chippings and no flush finishing of the paving stones are a danger for cyclists. Someone has made light work of this. At the expense of everyone's safety. Isn't there an EU-wide design system / guideline for good bicycle infrastructure?

• Apply a temporary asphalt overlay along the problematic section of the roadway to cover the loose chippings until a permanent solution can be implemented. Add clear signage warning cyclists of the potential danger. Contact the local cycling advocacy group for input on a more permanent design solution.
• Implement an EU-wide bicycle infrastructure guideline to ensure safe and consistent design standards for roadways, including flush finishing of paving stones and proper materials for cyclist safety. Look to successful bicycle infrastructure examples in Copenhagen and Amsterdam for inspiration.
• Create a community-led program that turns the reconstruction of the roadway into a public art project. Involve local artists to design and paint murals on the road, include seating areas and planters for greenery. Install bike-friendly safety measures and use the project as a catalyst for community events and engagement. This will increase safety whilst reinvigorating the area.
• Contact your local representative to demand proper reconstruction of the roadway and implementation of EU-wide design guidelines for bicycle infrastructure. Additionally, report any hazards to the appropriate authorities.
