wenn die Stuttgarter Verwaltung all diese Kanten, die quer über Radwege oder gar Hauptradrouten verlaufen, immer mit so Pseudo-Argumenten verteidigt (taktile Elemente und/oder Wasserablauf), frage ich mich immer, ob sie dort trotz aller Aus- & Weiterbildung einfach nur naiv-dumm sind und es halt wirklich nicht besser wissen - oder ob sie es absichtlich so tun, um den Radverkehr damit zu erschweren?
So eliminiert z.B. die Stadt Neu-Ulm solche Kanten vollständig.
