Open Dialogue on Bonn's Traffic and the Northern Bridge
How do people in Bonn experience the closed Northern Bridge, canceled trams, and changed bike paths? The conversation evening 'Speaking & Listening' invites you on November 26, 2026, to a respectful exchange about the current traffic situation.
Personal Experiences in Focus
Whether daily commute, living near the Northern Bridge, or indirect effects: In small groups, participants share their viewpoints and experiences. Everyone gets the same speaking time. Active listening creates space for different perspectives – regardless of whether someone is for or against an expansion of the Northern Bridge.
Dialogue Format with a Calm Atmosphere
The format combines societal discussion, personal encounters, and conscious conversation management. The event planning does not rely on loud exchanges, but on structured dialogue. This results in a concentrated event atmosphere where listening is as important as speaking.
Organization and Event Framework
The evening is led by Tanja Bunzel, Miriam Unverzagt, and the Speaking & Listening Network Bonn in collaboration with Mehr Demokratie e.V. The organizer is the Diakonisches Werk Bonn and Region as part of the Climate Program 2026. The offering is aimed at all interested parties and is open to diverse experiences and opinions.
Conclusion with Snacks and Drinks
After the conversation, a small snack and drinks provide an opportunity to continue the exchange in a personal atmosphere. Thus, the evening combines professional context of the traffic situation with an immediate event experience and genuine encounters.
Conclusion
Visitors can expect a structured, respectful conversation evening on a topic that directly affects many people in Bonn. Those who want to share their experiences, listen attentively to others, and gain new perspectives on traffic and urban development will experience an evening of social relevance.
