On March 15th, a significant new development was introduced at Europa-Park as part of the Master Plan for Traffic: the bypass around the visitor parking lot, including a new access route to the Camp Resort. Completed just in time for the season to start on March 23rd, this project marks a milestone in the ongoing collaboration between the municipality of Rust and the amusement park.
Project Background
Since 2017, Europa-Park has been closely working with the municipality of Rust to optimize the traffic infrastructure around the adventure resort. The new bypass for the visitor parking lot is a key component of these efforts, stemming from the need to more efficiently manage the increasing visitor traffic while also relieving local traffic congestion.
Features and Benefits
The bypass spans nearly 1,500 meters and includes an equally long bicycle path. Roland Mack emphasizes the importance of this project for adapting the infrastructure to visitor volumes and as a first point of contact for arriving guests. It relieves the municipality of Rust and aims at making the park more sustainable.
Positive Feedback
Dr. Kai-Achim Klare, the mayor of Rust, highlights the excellent cooperation among all participants. The new traffic solution significantly contributes to easing traffic congestion and greatly improves road safety.
Future Developments
Beyond the completion of the bypass, Europa-Park plans to expand measures for traffic optimization further. A focus lies on promoting sustainable modes of transportation for arrivals. Additionally, a barrier-free bus stop has been established, improving connections to important parts of the resort.
Conclusion
With the inauguration of the new bypass, Europa-Park takes another step towards a sustainable and visitor-friendly design for the adventure resort. The measure enhances the arrival experience for guests and contributes to relieving the local infrastructure. Future projects will continue this development.
