The school road campaign organized by the Schule am Auensee in cooperation with Verkehrswende Leipzig will close the road in front of our school to motorized traffic on September 19, 2025. Our goal is to make the street safer and more attractive for our students and to draw attention to the problematic traffic situation. We are redesigning the area, temporarily closing it to cars, and opening it up to pedestrians, cyclists, and children. With measures such as barriers and events, we are focusing attention on safe routes to school and traffic-calmed zones.

Leipzig will continue to expand its network of cycle paths in the future. This must be prioritized. Visitors can use an interactive map to indicate which cycle paths are particularly important to them.
For years, BUND Leipzig has been working with other stakeholders to promote cycling in our city. Through pop-up bike lanes, i.e., temporary bike lanes that are set up for just one day, BUND Leipzig draws attention to the fact that a bike lane is missing at this exact location. This is because bike lanes are safe and give cyclists the space they need in traffic.

Many people need to cross Zweinaundorfer Straße. They want to catch the bus, the S-Bahn, or cycle to Lene-Voigt-Park. But cars are constantly rushing by, overtaking the bus at the stop or driving criss-cross to the gas station or into the adjacent side streets.
If you want this situation to change, then come along! If you want to see how crossing the road can be done differently, then join in! With this campaign and workshop, we, the Bürgerverein Anger-Crottendorf e.V., would like to use a mobile zebra crossing and get people talking to each other.

Parked cars have long been such a common sight on our streets that we hardly notice them anymore. But this world could be different—a world with fewer cars. And people would still be able to get around. On this walk, walking researcher Bertram Weisshaar from FUSS e.

Which backyards and public spaces could be greened?

Walking is the most basic form of mobility. What's more, the choice of mode of transport shapes our understanding of the world and our thinking about cities and urban nature, mobility, and social interaction. Like the philosophers of ancient Greece, we at Transformatorenwerk Leipzig and the Deutsches Buch- und Schriftenmuseum want to think and talk to each other while walking. This BookTalkWalk embarks on a journey of thought together with Environment Mayor Heiko Rosenthal. The book he discusses, “The Buzz in the Meadow” by Dave Goulson, provides guidance along the way.
