Eco-project
One million for trout and ash trees in the Glan
Major construction site on the Glan causes a stir: A new "ascent" is to serve grayling and trout - paths are closed until May and local residents are annoyed.
The eco-project on the River Glan in Klagenfurt is costing one million euros. Surprising, given that the city has no money and the state of Carinthia is not exactly swimming in it either. "There are extremely high subsidies," says Erich Eibensteiner from the responsible Glan water association, explaining why construction is now starting despite Klagenfurt's financial difficulties. The federal government is contributing two thirds.
Glan fish are to reach the north from the south
By the end of May, a 250-metre-long and three-metre-wide relief channel is to be built on the city boundary with Ebenthal, in which the Glan fish - mainly grayling, but increasingly trout too, to the delight of those entitled to fish - can return from the south to the north to spawn here. At present, however, they are prevented from doing so by a sill that serves as flood protection.
Eibensteiner: "The fish ladder will have many other positive effects - a small green island will be created and the groundwater will also be relieved." Until completion, however, the cycle path is closed, as is the only bridge to Ebenthal.
Glan is to be revitalized
Local residents criticize the fact that the city gave no advance warning or information - some were practically surprised by the excavators outside their bedrooms. City communications refer to a newspaper report from last summer and Eibensteiner regrets that apparently not all residents were informed. However, he promises transparency and a great project: "It's just the first of several that will revitalize the Glan!"
