Rad WM Zürich: How Local Businesses Are Impacted by the Cycling World Championship
Impact of Rad WM Zürich on Local Businesses
The upcoming Rad WM Zürich promises to be an exhilarating event, but local businesses are expressing concerns over its impact. During the nine days of the UCI Cycling and Para-Cycling World Championships occurring from September 21 to 29, numerous streets will be blocked off. This has left many business owners in distress as customer access becomes limited.
Challenges Faced by Business Owners
- Claudia Zahner from Area Sense Hair & Beauty claims closures during peak hours threaten her business viability.
- Other local enterprises, like the Garage Schweizer and Blumenladen Florita, will have to shut down, projecting significant financial losses.
- As Robert van Strien from Mövenpick states, they've already seen a 40% decrease in expected revenue.
Community Reactions
Residents and business owners alike feel the weight of Rad WM Zürich. While some admire the sporting event, others see it as an undue burden during already challenging economic times.
