  • Overall transport concept 2040 for the Baden area

    Overall transport concept 2040 for the Baden area

    Following an intensive planning and participation process from 2022 to 2024, the delegation of authorities has adopted an overall transport concept that aims to sustainably improve mobility in the Baden region. The range of measures with a time horizon of 2040 includes the expansion of public transport with bus priority and optimised junctions.

    For pedestrians and cyclists, the cycle network will be expanded and additional bicycle parking spaces created. In terms of the road network, short-term measures are planned for the eastern bridgehead and improvements along Bruggerstrasse in Baden. At the same time, the upgrading of local thoroughfares and the strengthening of neighbourhoods as a “city of short distances” should promote urban and open spaces. In addition, transport demand is to be better controlled by municipalities and the canton through targeted mobility management. Long-term options for the period after 2040 were also considered.

    In addition to the short-term measures, options for the period after 2040 were also discussed. These include securing routes for important public transport corridors and possible measures for the eastern bridgehead.

    Centre relief as a central component
    The “ZEL long” variant, a road relief option with a bypass around Untersiggenthal, was also decided as a long-term option. The implementation of this variant is to be examined as soon as the impact assessment of the initial measures indicates a need.

    Participation and broad consensus
    The concept was developed in a participatory process that included mobility conferences, online participations and support group meetings. The broad involvement of municipalities, experts and the population led to a consensus-based package of measures that is now to be implemented step by step.

    With the adopted overall transport concept 2040, the Baden region is laying the foundations for sustainable and future-oriented mobility development. The coordinated measures promote public transport, non-motorised traffic and the quality of life of the population and offer a clear perspective for the coming decades.

    Overall transport concept for Baden and the surrounding area

    Im Rahmen des ambitionierten Gesamtverkehrskonzepts für den Raum Baden haben zehn beteiligte Gemeinden einen entscheidenden Schritt vollzogen. Diese Ziele, ausgerichtet bis zum Jahr 2040, zielen darauf ab, die Mobilität im Raum Baden effizienter, umweltschonender und zukunftsfähiger zu gestalten. Zu den Kernpunkten gehören die Förderung einer flächensparenden Mobilität, die Schaffung attraktiver Bedingungen für den Arbeits- und Bildungsverkehr und die Sicherstellung einer stabilen Erreichbarkeit für den Autoverkehr. Die Planungen unterstützen zudem eine Siedlungsentwicklung in gut mit dem öffentlichen Verkehr erschlossenen Gebieten.

    Ein besonderes Augenmerk gilt dem Transit-Schwerverkehr, für welchen spezifische Erfolgskriterien hinzugefügt wurden, um die Siedlungsgebiete zu schonen. Dies folgt einem Antrag der Gemeinde Obersiggenthal, der eine Zunahme des Transitschwerverkehrs verhindern möchte.

    Mit dem Abschluss der ersten beiden Planungsschritte hat die Behördendelegation eine solide Grundlage für die nachfolgenden Fachplanungen geschaffen. Abschließend ist es das Ziel des Kantons Aargau, in Kooperation mit den lokalen Akteuren, ein vorausschauendes und integriertes Mobilitätsangebot zu entwickeln. Die Ergebnisse der GVK-Planung sollen bis 2025 in den kantonalen Richtplan aufgenommen werden, um die Weichen für zukünftige Mobilitätsbedürfnisse rechtzeitig zu stellen.

  • Government is slowing down traffic planning for Baden

    Government is slowing down traffic planning for Baden

    The new overall traffic concept for the Baden-Wettingen area has to go into an additional planning loop. According to a press release , the Aargau government council decided to leave the concept at the stage of the interim result. In doing so, he is responding to reservations that were expressed in the public hearing.

    In the hearing, for example, it was demanded that the Baden high bridge could also be used by cars in the future. This would also eliminate the need for a new Limmat bridge between Baden and Wettingen. In the Siggenthal a higher traffic load is feared. With the additional planning loop, the continuation of the Limmattalbahn beyond Killwangen could also be included in the planning in the future.

    However, the government council makes an exception in the overall transport concept: the Velosteg between Neuenhof and Würenlos should already be specified in the structure plan. This could secure the federal funds for the project.

    The overall traffic concept for the Brugg-Windisch area, on the other hand, is to be specified in the structure plan. These include the center relief and the bike route.
