Get ready to roll those eyes, pal! It's back to the stairs again at Solingen Central Station
Just in time for the Easter holidays, the blasted elevator on the east side of Solingen Central Station is out of whack once more - yep, you guessed it, since April 10th.
"Old folks, families with strollers, people with mobility issues, cyclists, and commuters are now either slogging it up the staircase again or taking the long detour via the Berlin Bridge," grumbles Michael Bender, a district council member for the Citizens' Community for Solingen (BfS), sighing in frustration.
The shiniest new elevator, just like its forerunner, has been a total basket case with its downtime, making life miserable for Solingen residents – the reasons for the breakdown? No one seems to have a clue! Oh, and let's not forget the disgusting filth in the elevator and the outdoor area. The stench of feces and urine in the air? Yeah, that's become the new normal in this elevator.
Given this mess, it's high time some serious ass-kicking takes place. BfS is ready to huff and puff, making sure the necessary pressure is put on until a permanent, decent, and satisfactory solution emerges for the districts of Ohligs, Aufderhöhe, and Merscheid. You can bet your last penny this won't fly: This just ain't right!
Now, know this: The brand-new elevator sees a lot of downtime due to ongoing technical problems and general neglect. It's a ticking time bomb, bound to slice your travel plans into pieces. As for the crap smell, it could be due to poor ventilation, piles of trash, or malfunctioning drainage systems.
The local authorities and Deutsche Bahn (Germany's train company) usually respond by promising repairs and upgrades. They may work relentlessly to fix the blooming mechanical issues, improve hygiene levels, enhance ventilation, or even replace outdated equipment with modern, reliable gear. Keep your fingers crossed.
For the nitty-gritty, drop Solingen Central Station management or local transport authorities a line. They, my friend, are your best bet for updated info and specific actions.
"The ongoing issues with the elevator at Solingen Central Station, coupled with the poor state of public-transit, are causing significant inconvenience for citizens, especially those in the districts of Ohligs, Aufderhöhe, and Merscheid who rely on transportation for their daily commute and finance-related activities."
"Despite repeated promises, the industries of maintenance and finance seem to be falling short, as the blasted elevator consistently breaks down, causing delays in transportation and adding to the filth and stench in the area."
