A few months ago, the excavators came in. The transportation project is currently expected to be completed by summer 2025.
Two new roundabouts, two new bridges and a construction period of approximately two years are just some of the key points in the Wagrain city center bypass plan. Variants of bypass solutions for the traffic-congested city center have been pursued since 1988, with a €9.6 million project currently underway and expected to be completed by summer 2025. Axel Ellmer, mayor of Wagrain, said: “We are very much looking forward to the completion of the bypass and we are planning a conference area in the town. New businesses will then be able to move in and the quality of life will be greatly improved. Improve. “Starting in the summer of 2025, we will test traffic calming measures to see where adjustments can be made, and then we will move forward with the design of the city centre. “
Construction work is proceeding as planned
The “shell” of the project is now complete and construction work on the approximately 500-metre-long bypass is proceeding as planned. This greatly defuses Wagrain’s near-legendary “corner”. “This bypass will significantly relieve pressure on the town’s through roads and at the intersections of Kleinlerstrasse and Wagnerstrasse. Combined with traffic calming measures, we are creating entirely new opportunities for pedestrians and cyclists in the center of the town. Next to the town There is a high-performance road that is also combined with effective flood control,” Lieutenant-Governor Stefan Schnöll emphasizes. The canton of Salzburg and the city of Wagrain will each bear half of the project costs. Transportation projects are inseparable from challenging situations. Christian Cecon, project manager for Salzburg canton, said the location of the hillside next to where the bypass was being built came into focus: “The slope has a tendency to slide and we had to build massive slope protection with stone linings Therefore, anchor walls were also built in the southern area, but everything went according to plan.
Perfect interaction between every participant
The Flood and Avalanche Control Division (WLV) is also working closely with state and municipal governments to construct the Wagraine Bypass. “The WLV deepens the stream next to the road and raises the bank wall. When we build the road, we are able to build on the flood protection structure. A perfect interplay of forces,” Christian Secon continues.
