A future-oriented mobility offering is due to be set up in Fischbeker Reethen. The goals of the mobility concept are to reduce car traffic, promote sustainable mobility and increase the proportion of environmentally friendly modes of transport, i.e. walking, cycling and local public transport. To this end, a wide range of different forms of mobility will be ensured in Fischbeker Reethen in order to meet the diverse mobility needs of both residents and businesses.

The Senate has set itself the goal of developing Hamburg into a cycling city and increasing the proportion of cycle traffic to at least 25 per cent by 2030. The promotion of cycling has a key role to play in achieving goals in terms of climate protection, noise reduction and air pollution control. Consequently, various offerings will contribute to Fischbeker Reethen being developed as a district with reduced car traffic and providing a good network for cyclists and pedestrians.

BICYCLE, CAR, PUBLIC TRANSPORT – WHAT TRANSPORT CONCEPT IS PLANNED FOR THE DISTRICT?

Fischbeker Reethen has good public transport connections. You can travel directly to the centre of Harburg or the centre of Hamburg from the Fischbek suburban railway station. In addition, a new bus route will be created for Fischbeker Reethen, serving six stops with a maximum walking distance of 300 metres to houses.

There will also be a finely meshed network of footpaths and cycle paths through the area. The footpath and cycle path along Sandbeker Redder provides a safe connection in the midst of leafy surroundings between Fischbeker Reethen and the district centre Ohrnsweg, Ohrnsweg primary school and ‘Siedlung Sandbek’ to the east. The footpath and cycle path link to the Fischbek suburban railway station follows the route of the former tank ramp. A fast cycle route is planned at a later date that will connect cycle route 10, which comes from the centre of Hamburg and currently ends in Neugraben, with Fischbeker Reethen.

Fischbeker Reethen will also offer a comprehensive range of shared mobility services, specifically to make it easier to do without a private car. These sharing services will be grouped together at so-called ‘mobility hubs’ in order to provide users with a clear and centralised overview of the services that are available. Cycles, cargo bikes and car sharing, bike parks, cycle and scooter sharing and charging stations for electric cars will be combined at a total of six mobility points in public spaces.

HOW IS PARKING MANAGED IN THE DISTRICT?

Residents’ private parking spaces will be provided in parking bays, on parking levels and in two centrally located district car parks. As a district with reduced car traffic, a parking space ratio of 0.44 is stipulated. This means that there are approximately two parking spaces for every five homes. Services such as bicycle and car sharing as well as good bus and train connections ensure mobility for all residents in Fischbeker Reethen.

Visitors can park on the side of roads in public spaces or in one of the district car parks. Accessible parking spaces are included. Visitor parking spaces are expected to be subject to a charge and/or a limited time (parking disc regulation).

WILL PUBLIC SPACES BE DESIGNED TO BE ACCESSIBLE?

The public spaces, for example streets, pavements, district squares, parks etc. are intended to be accessible to all users in the district. The ReStra (regulations for the planning and design of urban roads) for Hamburg define precise specifications for accessibility. These also include accessible, end-to-end mobility services, a recognisable distinction between traffic areas and pedestrian areas through design, and appropriate pavement widths so that sufficient distance can be maintained when overtaking. In addition, sufficient recreational and meeting areas should be provided on and along pavements and footpaths.

The essentials in brief

Life in Fischbeker Reethen is diverse. Key features are present throughout the district.

Sustainable

Water is an essential element that characterises Fischbeker Reethen. The centrally located lake is a centre of attraction for recreation and leisure. It acts as a retention basin during heavy rainfall and cools the district in summer.
