The new, almost one-kilometer-long cycling connection along Alszeile in Vienna-Hernals has been completed. The modernized route not only improves safety and comfort for cyclists but also brings new greenery and drinking hydrants to the neighborhood.

Along Alszeile between Dornbacher Straße and Gürtel, cyclists can now travel comfortably on a modern cycling connection approximately 900 meters long. The new route closes important gaps in the cycling network and leads safely away from roads and tracks into the inner districts.

Two-Way and One-Way Bike Paths Ensure Safety

Between Alsgasse and Vollbadgasse, a more than three-meter-wide two-way bike path has been constructed – structurally separated and embedded in the adjacent park. Outbound, it continues from Vollbadgasse to Dornbacher Straße over a 500-meter-long one-way bike path, which is also structurally separated from car traffic.

Greenery, Automatic Irrigation, and Drinking Hydrants

In addition to improving the cycling infrastructure, investment was also made in greenery: New trees with automatic irrigation and drinking hydrants ensure a more pleasant microclimate in summer and offer cyclists refreshment.

Part of the Vienna Cycling Offensive

The cycling connection along Alszeile is one of over 250 projects already implemented as part of the Vienna Cycling Offensive. Since 2019, the share of cycling traffic in Vienna has increased from 7 to 11 percent. Further expansion projects are also planned for 2026 to continue promoting environmentally friendly mobility.
