Key aspects include the analysis of intersections, traffic restrictions, road cross-sections, visibility, parking spaces including associated safety zones, and minimizing stopping for cyclists. The feasibility of implementing bicycle streets in suitable sections will also be explored. A more attractive cycle route through the neighborhoods must be designed in such a way that it does not become equally attractive to potential through traffic or rat-running. This requires a consistent traffic planning approach and the effective implementation of any applicable traffic restrictions. Connections to the main route network are being reviewed, and solutions are being developed to improve the accessibility of the secondary route and make it more visible to both cyclists and motorized traffic. \"Cycling routes on secondary roads are serious alternatives within the overall system. A harmonious mobility situation is only possible if such a route is consistently planned with a focus on continuity and safety, leaving no gaps. Due to the anticipated impact on parked vehicles along the route, its implementation will have to be linked to parking management in the Paulusviertel district,\" said Head of Mobility Paul Georg Wandrey. The review of the Herdweg secondary cycling route is connected to the ongoing discussion about a cycling facility on Heinrichstrasse. Without such a facility, the traffic volume on Heinrichstrasse makes it unattractive for cyclists. Modifications to the intersections on Heinrichstrasse would reduce its capacity for motorized traffic. Furthermore, the narrow road width largely precludes the implementation of a satisfactory cycling facility. Depending on the section, only a one-way cycle path would be possible, and in some cases, no cycle path or protected lane at all. (DARMSTADT \u2013 PSD \/ stip)"}
