After the ÖBB clearing
Municipality creates alternative nesting sites for birds
After ÖBB cleared hedges along the noise barriers in Krumpendorf, thereby destroying breeding grounds for birds, the municipality now wants to create new nesting opportunities.
In July, as reported, ÖBB radically cleared hedges and greenery along the noise barriers on the Südbahnweg in Krumpendorf. And this despite the fact that such green areas are used by numerous bird species as nurseries for their offspring during this time.
According to reports in the "Krone" newspaper, the rigorous action was stopped, but by then birds had already been driven away and nesting sites destroyed. Only bare walls can now be seen in the "treated" areas.
Our municipality attaches great importance to nature conservation. That is why we also want to create several new nesting sites for birds.
Gernot Bürger, Bürgermeister Krumpendorf
"You can clearly see that, contrary to ÖBB's claims, the plants have not caused any damage to the noise barriers," says Mayor Gernot Bürger.
Doing good in two senses
In order to provide the feathered creatures with alternative breeding grounds in future, the municipality has set itself the goal of installing ten birdhouses in Albert Peter Pirkham Park opposite. "We care about nature. That's why we discussed and approved the purchase of the birdhouses in the local council."
"The nesting boxes are made by the pro mente association, so we are doing something good in two senses with the purchase," explains local councillor Markus Steindl, who also campaigned for the clearing to be stopped.
