  • Asian Breeze (26)
    Asian Breeze (26) （亜細亜の風） Happy New Year to you 22 February, 2013 A Happy New Year may sound little too late, but the Chinese New Year, or "Spring Festival," the literal translation of the Chinese name of（春節）, was 10 February 2013. Each year is symbolized with animals in the Chinese calendar. This is the year of the snake（蛇）which is the sixth animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. The Year of the Snake is associated with the earthly branch symbol （巳）and symbolizes such character traits as intelligence, gracefulness and materialism. It is believed that people born under the Snake zodiac (in 2001, 1989, 1977, 1965, 1953, and 1941) share certain characteristics: They are reputed to be thoughtful and wise and to approach problems rationally and logically, seldom instinctively. Such people are complex beings, they are clever and people of few words from their birth. Their business is always going well, but they are very often stingy. They are sometimes egoistic and conceited. However they can be very active in their friends’ life. They are often too active, not believing other people and relying only on themselves. Snakes are also very insightful and naturally intuitive. If anyone has a sixth sense, it's those born in the Snake year. This is partly what makes them so mysterious. For those who were born under the Snake zodiac, is your character correctly expressed by the above statement? In this issue, we got words from the chairman of WWACG, Mr. Erich Rindlisbacher, and the introduction of his organization, Slot Coordination Switzerland (SCS).

Einleitung 1.1 Ausgangslage Der Raum Kloten-Bassersdorf ist Teil des dynamischen Entwicklungsraums Dynamischer Entwicklungsraum Flughafen-Glattal. Die Gemeinden Kloten und Bassersdorf setzen sich aktiv Flughafen-Glattal mit dieser Entwicklung auseinander und machen sich Gedanken zur Abstimmung von Siedlung und Verkehr. Im Zuge der Realisierung des Brüttenertunnels wird die Baltenswilerstrasse unterbrochen. Dies führt zu Anpassungen am Strassennetz im Raum Basserdorf/Baltenswil. Die Kantonsstrasse zwischen Baltenswil und Basserdorf muss verlegt werden und Zugänge und Unterführungen im Bereich des Bahnhofs müssen neu organisiert werden. Im Rahmen der ZMB «Korridorstudie: Verlegung Baltenswilerstrasse Geprüfte Varianten für Verlegung Bassersdorf» wurden im Mai 2019 verschiedene Varianten geprüft und Baltenswilerstrasse evaluiert. Dabei kristallisierten sich die beiden Varianten «Lückenschluss Süd» und «Südumfahrung kurz» als mögliche Ersatzverbindungen heraus: Der Lückenschluss Süd ist eine Verbindungsstrasse zwischen der Bassersdorferstrasse und der Zürichstrasse südlich der Bahngleise.
