To prevent ramming attacks, Germany’s Xmas markets get retractable bollards
Augsburg's Christmas market has installed removable security bollards to prevent vehicle attacks, a stark contrast to its once-magnificent tree. These heavy posts, requiring frequent manual removal for trams, have become a national symbol of heightened security concerns following past attacks. While some criticize the cumbersome system, vendors report increased visitor numbers.
