The German city of Freiburg handed over temporary means of the ODR to Lviv
On June 15, 2022, the city of Lviv received a shipment of humanitarian aid from the partner city of Freiburg (Germany), containing several hundred units of temporary means of traffic management. In particular, the cargo included: a number of road signs, plastic directional milestones, stands for directional milestones and road signs, flashing traffic lights (red and yellow), traffic signal cones, plastic fencing barriers and temporary road markings (in rolls) . We will remind you that in March 2022, after the start of full-scale hostilities and the creation of dozens of roadblocks on the roads of Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, and Chernivtsi regions, the NGO "Vision Zero" identified the problem of a lack of ODR means on them. In coordination with representatives of these regions, we compiled a technical nomenclature of these necessary tools and, together with foreign colleagues, translated this nomenclature into Polish and German. Then, both our NGO and the cities independently distributed relevant requests for assistance, together with a compiled list of ODR funds, among organizations and municipalities in Poland and Germany. We are glad that Lviv managed to receive this specialized humanitarian aid. It will help the city to secure road traffic near checkpoints. We were pleased to take a professional part in this humanitarian project.
