A demonstration is to take place on Sunday against a planned landfill site for construction waste in Lasselau between Weibern and Aistersheim. The organizers fear, among other things, 200 trucks a day for at least 20 years and a severe impact on the surrounding nature and agriculture.

In the middle of the grassland between Aistersheim and Weibern, where there are now fields and fallow land, a landfill site is to be built. The "Lebenswerte Zukunft Weibern-Aistersheim" initiative fears 200 trucks a day for at least 20, maybe even 40 years, long-term damage to the soil, environmental damage due to exhaust fumes, waste water and dust, sealing of green spaces and heavy truck traffic.

Possibly also a recycling plant
In addition to the landfill, a building materials recycling plant may also be planned. The citizens are therefore calling for an immediate halt to planning and criticize the plans as an untimely and irrevocable impairment of the area and its nature and agriculture. For this reason, a protest march will be held in Weibern on Sunday, June 30 at 10 a.m. with a liturgy and picnic.

Protest march on Sunday

The service and picnic will take place at 10 a.m., whatever the weather. Access is possible via the Piretweg in Weibern at the road maintenance depot, there is also a parking lot opposite. The organizers ask you to arrive by bike if possible. Coffee, cake and drinks will be provided, but you should bring your own picnic blanket.
