Transportation and Mobility. An analysis of the City’s existing transportation conditions will be undertaken. This will encompass the existing street system, sidewalk network, and other bike and pedestrian facilities, and public transportation. Problems, concerns, and opportunities for improvement will be identified. The analysis will assist with the development of recommendations that would improve access and control, linkages and connectivity, and overall safety and efficiency. Our analysis will include discussions and consideration of other jurisdictional transportation efforts including state, regional, county, and other planning levels.
Transportation and Mobility. Information collected as part of the public/stakeholder input will form the framework from which a set of broad-based goals and objectives that support the achievement of the transportation network will be developed.
Transportation and Mobility. Transport and mobility policy is an integral party of good local development, which is why a comprehensive mobility plan is needed to address various challenges. We want to manage mobility in our community so that everyone, regardless of their mode of transport, can easily and safely reach any destination within the commune. Safety for everyone, especially children and people with special mobility needs, is our priority. Therefore, we will: • Improve and expand the cycling network and cycling infrastructure in general to promote active mobility. • Build a pedestrian and bicycle underpass under the bridge (N7) from the commune to the Centre Xxxxxx Xxxxx. • Replace the pedestrian and bicycle bridge near the Walferdange school. • Connection to the Vel’Oh network as soon as possible, with additional stations to be added in the future. • Create a paved bike path from Bereldange to Bridel. • Create a bicycle path along the Xxxxx garage to the wastewater treatment plant (Rue du Pont). • Redesign the "Krommlängten" with a safe bike lane and implement traffic calming measures. • Provide additional high quality (safe, lockable, and sheltered) bicycle parking spaces in central locations (near Flex-Carsharing, CAW, playgrounds, shops, etc.) and increase space for cargo bikes. • Analyse and address safety issues at pedestrian crossings. • Improve visibility and signage of bicycle lanes. • Plan to improve accessibility of the Walferdange train station. • Implement traffic calming measures through construction (e.g., central islands, narrowing, reorganisation of parking spaces, greening, shared space zones, etc.). • Install a multimodal filter (bollards) between the ecological car park behind the “Pidal” and the rugby pitch to prevent through traffic. • Develop a traffic calming plan for roads with high traffic volumes or special conditions. • Actively participate in the redesign of the N7, with a particular focus on the town centre, additional parking spaces along the N7 (next to the football pitch, across from "éduPôle"), and the establishment of a bicycle lane. • Further development of car-sharing services, with additional stations and a FLEX small van. • Install more public charging stations: expand existing ones and add more decentralized stations in residential areas (especially near apartment buildings). • Electrify the Walfy-Flexibus and all school buses. • Electrify the municipal vehicle fleet wherever possible.
