Damage due to vandalism

Vandalism has caused considerable damage to the newly installed lighting at Salzgittersee, which will now be repaired as quickly as possible.

Damaged electricity box at Salzgittersee

A total of 20 masts were tilted due to the impact of force, which led to damage to the masts in the area of the mast flaps. However, the stability of the poles is not at risk. Furthermore, a control cabinet was smeared and knocked over by force. This caused the cabinet foundation to break. Both must now be replaced.

As a result of the damage mentioned above, several lights on the southern shore of the lake have had to be taken out of service until they can be repaired. The city council is endeavoring to repair the damage as quickly as possible and will file criminal charges against unknown persons for damage to property. It is also pointed out that the municipal public order service and the police regularly monitor the area to prevent such damage.
