Ohligs’ renovated roundabout sparks chaos and safety fears among locals
The renovation of the double roundabout in Ohligs has sparked widespread frustration among residents, cyclists, and local businesses. Approved by the SPD, CDU, and FDP but opposed by the Greens, the project has led to traffic chaos, safety concerns, and financial strain on the district. The decision to renovate the roundabout was pushed through by the city council’s governing coalition, despite objections from the Greens. Since completion, the new one-way street rules have caused confusion, with many drivers struggling to turn right onto Bonn Street. Turning left has proven even more hazardous, with residents calling it nearly impossible. The roundabout’s renovation has left Ohligs with traffic disruptions, safety risks, and unexpected costs. With no clear solution yet for its intended use, the district now faces the challenge of correcting the flaws while ensuring future projects gain broader acceptance.
