Transport policy
Ecker: “FPÖ farmer stands on the public transport brake”
The Greens and the Freedom Party in Lower Austria will probably no longer be political friends: transport spokesman Georg Ecker from the Öko-Partei criticizes the blue transport policy.
He opens extended (partial) railroad lines on the Pottendorf line, announces modern commuter trains, saves historic railroads such as the Ötscherland Express and puts Park & Ride facilities into operation. Provincial Vice-President Udo Landbauer (FPÖ) seems to be pushing ahead with the expansion of public transport as the responsible provincial councillor. But Georg Ecker from the Green Party sees things differently.
Criticism of the public transport balance sheet
How good is the FPÖ's public transport record really? Ecker: "The Freedom Party presents itself as if more is being invested in public transport because of its work. In reality, the course for the current investments was set earlier."
Ecker naturally praises "his" minister: "Leonore Gewessler has made up for past failures and not only introduced the climate ticket, but also provided a whole series of positive impulses for public transport". In contrast to this, Landbauer is "on the brakes" for projects such as the extension of streetcar line 71 from Vienna to Schwechat.
The inclusion of the Ostbahnbrücke bridge in Vienna-Stadlau in the 2040 target network is an important signal
Georg Ecker (Grüne)
It is also important to Ecker that the eastern region of Lower Austria is not forgotten when it comes to public transport. "Laaer Ostbahn, Nordostbahn, Nordbahn - there is a lot to do." The inclusion of the extension of the Stadlauer Ostbahnbrücke bridge in the 2040 target network is another important measure for the entire region.
