Anger at the Zurich gold coast: Due to construction at the Seestrasse in Küsnacht, a long traffic jam in the direction of Zurich forms for weeks. Especially in the early hours of the morning, motorists need to use patience. Last week it was particularly bad. A Change in the traffic regime has led to Chaos.
Like a beaut Berger reported, you could drive around the roughly 400-Meter-long construction site on the right shore of lake Zurich with a reasonable amount of effort.
Last Wednesday, he stood from the border to alder Creek: “I have used to this day, a total of 45 minutes from Herrliberg to Zollikon. That’s 30 minutes more than usual.”
“Nothing moved”
Particularly annoying is the fact that The police had for the Zurich street, and the quarters of the routes prohibition in the direction of Zurich imposed. Motorists were forced, on the Old country road to Dodge: “How it looked like anyone can imagine.”
a reader from Küsnacht reported in kilometers-long traffic jams: “I was standing on Wednesday after the railway underpass in Küsnacht – nothing moved.” At some point he had lost the patience and the ferry from Meilen to Horgen. On Friday, the man was again in the jam, as he says: “This is unacceptable.”
slow traffic prevented
The building Department Canton of Zurich confirmed on request, that residents and motorists had complained: “we were aware that the construction work will lead to the Seestrasse to longer travel times,” says spokeswoman Isabelle Rüegg. A traffic jam in such a busy street was hardly to be avoided.
