The silent food refusal protest “is scheduled indefinitely,” Fuchsberger explained. A police spokeswoman said at the request of the APA that the rally had been announced on time and had not been banned. This will be monitored in the course of patrol duty. “But there must always be more than three people in the room to qualify as a demonstration.”
Protest against the “aggressive approach”
The small group’s hunger strike around veterinarian Eva Wimmer is directed against the “aggressive approach” of the project operator, Fuchsberger explained. “The helplessness and utter horror at the ruthless and massive approach of the project operators Verbund AG and APG to push forward expropriation processes, construction works and forest clearing in the course of the 380 kV overhead line in Salzburg led them to take these drastic means. In particular, the fact that After more than 25 years of the project, the few days or weeks that are not expected until the final decision of the court is available, triggers the greatest misunderstanding and the greatest emotions in the population ”.
Opponents of overhead lines want underground cables
Opponents of the airline are in favor of an underground cable. They criticize the fact that no Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) was carried out for the Salzburg line prior to the EIA. In recent months and days, demonstrations have been repeated in forest areas where clearings will be carried out for the construction of the power line.
The Salzburg line is supposed to close the gap in the 380 kV ring
The Salzburg line is considered the most important electrical infrastructure project in Austria. It is intended to bridge the gap in the 380 kV ring. The building permit is legally binding since March 2019, but the Federal Administrative Court (BVwG) has made it possible to appeal to the Administrative Court (VwGH). The decision is still pending here, but all requests for suspensive effect against the big project were rejected. Construction started in October 2019. The Salzburg line should be completed by 2025.
