Lifting equipment at the crane site sustains damage from intentional destruction

Wiesbaden's Kransand Elevator Suffers Vandalism, Undergoing Repairs

The Kransand area elevator, which was commissioned in August 2024, is currently undergoing repairs due to vandalism that occurred in June. The automatic doors in the specified location were severely damaged, resulting in repair costs of around 6,000 euros.

This elevator, situated on the Rhine, offers a significant advantage in overcoming a height difference and is particularly beneficial for boarding and disembarking at the bus stop "Mainz-Kastel Bridgehead". It provides a direct, barrier-free connection between the Kransand area and the transport hub at the bridgehead, making it a valuable asset for individuals with mobility restrictions.

However, during the repair period, the operation of the elevator will not be technically possible. The repair of the damaged automatic doors is expected to take approximately twelve weeks.

For any questions or queries regarding the elevator, citizens are encouraged to contact the responsible department or office. The Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden, located at Schlossplatz 6, 65183 Wiesbaden, can also be contacted. The press office's website is www.wiesbaden.de/de/stadt/pressemitteilungen.

It is important to note that the earlier mentioned damages to the automatic doors and the repair costs are not directly related to the elevator. The search results do not provide information about who committed vandalism at the elevator system in Wiesbaden in June.

The Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden issued this press release to keep the public informed about the current state of the Kransand area elevator. The office remains committed to maintaining and improving the city's infrastructure for the benefit of all its citizens.
