Vienna (OTS) On Wednesday, July 19, 2023, the City of Vienna – Road Administration and Road Construction will start road rehabilitation work on Rainergasse in the section between Johann-Strauß-Gasse and Schönburgstrasse in the 4th district. At the same time, construction measures to adapt to climate change and to increase the quality of stay are implemented.

Details

In the Rainergasse between Johann-Strauß-Gasse and Schönburgstraße, road renovation work is being carried out due to damage over time and the necessary renewal of the traffic lights. In the course of the construction project, greening measures will be implemented to provide more shade and cooling in the densely built-up area. A total of three trees and two standard shrubs will be planted and new green areas created. For more safety and comfort for pedestrians, sidewalk extensions will be built at the Rainergasse/Johann-Strauß-Gasse and Rainergasse/Schönburgstraße intersections. In addition, a new bench will be set up and an existing fire hydrant will be converted into a drinking hydrant.

traffic measures

The construction work will take place during the day. In July and August, construction takes place at the intersection of Rainergasse and Schönburgstrasse. During this period, the Schönburgstraße from Rainergasse to Seisgasse is closed to vehicle traffic – access to approved parking spaces remains open. Bus route 13A is diverted in the direction of Skodagasse via Kolschitzkygasse, Johann-Strauß-Gasse, Rainergasse and Schönburgstraße.
