Grünendeich removes signs banning motorhome parking at Lühe ferry terminal

Following a WOCHENBLATT report highlighting a discrepancy between the mayor's advice and actual parking rules, the municipality of Grünendeich quickly removed two signs that prohibited motorhomes from parking at alternative lots. Motorhome drivers can now use these lots at the standard car rate of €1.20 per half hour, making short stops at the Lühe ferry terminal more affordable.

Motorhome damages railway barrier in Dornburg

On Sunday afternoon, a 46-year-old driver stopped his motorhome in front of a closed railway barrier at the Brückenstraße crossing in Dornburg but apparently failed to secure it against rolling away. The vehicle then rolled into the barrier, damaging it. The crossing had to be temporarily secured by emergency services, and trains passed with reduced speed. Technicians from Deutsche Bahn repaired the system within hours, and a new barrier was installed by evening.
