City of Heidenau publishes list of streets in evacuation zone around bomb find

In addition, Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße, Schillerstraße, Schmiedestraße, and Waldstraße are considered part of the evacuation zone. The published list thus covers all relevant resident addresses that directly affect the closure zone around the location where the bomb was found.

Hotline for people with limited mobility

For people with limited mobility, the city has set up a central point of contact. From 6:00 a.m., those affected can register their transport needs via the citizen hotline of the Heidenau city administration at the number 03529 571-0. The city stated verbatim: „Für eine ggf. erforderliche Anmeldung eines Transportbedarfs für mobilitätseingeschränkte Personen steht Ihnen ab 6.00 Uhr das Bürgertelefon der Stadtverwaltung Heidenau unter 03529 571-0 zur Verfügung."

According to the administration, the publication of the address list serves primarily to provide clear information to residents. Since parts of the city area are in close proximity to the Elbe as well as to adjacent districts such as Pratzschwitz, the precise delineation of the closure zone is equally important for the emergency services and the population.

The city asks all those affected to follow the administration's instructions and to contact the official authorities at an early stage if needed. According to earlier information, the citizen hotlines of the city of Heidenau as well as the city of Pirna are available in parallel as points of contact to coordinate inquiries from the population.

Background: Bomb find and closure zone

The measure is related to the bomb find that became known the previous day, which had made the evacuation of part of the city area necessary. The city of Heidenau had already informed residents beforehand of the necessity of the evacuation. With the list now published, a complete and verifiable overview of the affected addresses is available for the first time.

The publication was made in consultation with the responsible security and regulatory authorities. This is intended to ensure that no address is accidentally overlooked and that all households in the closure zone are informed in good time. The city recommends continuing to follow the notices on the official channels.

Information for affected residents

Residents who are unsure whether their address lies within the evacuation zone can check the list using their own house number. In case of uncertainties or special needs, such as care requirements or pets, the citizen hotline should be contacted. The city announced that the information would be updated if necessary as soon as further findings from the operation become available.
