Rendsburg-Eckernförde - Grinding ferry between Kosel and Brodersby interrupts traffic

The ferry between Kosel (Schwansen) and Brodersby (Angeln) will suspend its service from Wednesday until probably the end of January. The reason for this is the changeover to the new solar-powered "Missunde III" grinding ferry, as a spokesperson for the State Agency for Coastal Protection, National Park and Marine Conservation said on Tuesday. Initially, preliminary work is planned on the two jetties. The main work is scheduled to begin on January 8. The "Missunde III" is currently moored in the port of Kappeln. It was built in Saxony-Anhalt.

The "Missunde III" is powered by batteries and solar energy. The ferry, which cost around 3.3 million euros, is quieter, emission-free and significantly larger than its predecessor, which went into service in 2003. For the first time, coaches and agricultural vehicles can now also cross the Schlei. Its predecessor, the "Missunde II", carried up to 120,000 vehicles and 50,000 bicycles a year.

  1. The interruption in traffic between Kosel and Brodersby is due to the shift to the new solar-powered "Missunde III" grinding ferry in Schleswig-Holstein's Rendsburg-Eckernförde region.
  2. Despite being built in Saxony-Anhalt, the emission-free and larger "Missunde III" ferry will begin its main work in Rendsburg-Eckernförde's jetties, providing coastal protection and facilitating the passage of larger vehicles such as coaches and agricultural transports.
  3. With the new ferry service, the number of vehicles and bicycles crossing the Schlei annually is expected to increase significantly, managing the traffic flow and benefiting the coastal towns in the region.
  4. The changeover impact on traffic may require additional measures for alternative shipping options or detours during the construction period, ensuring ongoing coastal transportation and communication in Schleswig-Holstein.
