However, the local population turned down the tunnel, on the one hand, because the Kleines Walsertal would have become a corridor for through traffic and, on the other hand, it would still have been further to the central locations of Vorarlberg than the centres of the Allgäu.
Kuid kohalik rahvas lükkas tunneli tagasi, ühest küljest, kuna Kleines Walsertal oleks muutunud transiitliikluse koridoriks, ja teisest küljest, see oleks ikkagi olnud kaugemal Vorarlbergi keskosast, kui Allgäu keskosast.
