Some pedestrian and cycle traffic is to be routed in tunnels under the junction and in its immediate vicinity. In addition to the existing plans, additional crossings, including diagonal connections, are to be examined. The cycle traffic routing is to be implemented in accordance with the cycling decision and aspects of (perceived) safety are to be taken into account.
In addition to this decision, the council also revoked its decision from 2017 to convert the junction into a traffic circle. The junction expansion with traffic lights is significantly cheaper than the traffic circle solution. Earlier cost estimates amounted to 2.7 million euros for the traffic light-controlled variant and seven million euros for the traffic circle solution. In view of the general cost increases in recent years and especially in recent months, an increase in costs by a factor of 1.5 can be assumed. The variant with traffic lights would therefore cost around four million euros and the traffic circle variant around 10.5 million euros.
In addition, the planned residential park II in Vilich-Müldorf with up to 420 residential units is to be accessed via the intersection.
