Background

On 18 November 2009 the Landtag voted 18–7 to spend 15 million francs on an approach road for an industrial zone in Schaan. [1] The road would be 1.4km long, although 75% of the route was already roadway. A separate cycle and pedestrian path would also be created alongside the road. [2]

The Free List and Transport Club Liechtenstein (VCL) believed it to be the first step in attempts to build a bypass and started an attempt to force a referendum. Between 29 November and 23 December they collected 1,257 signatures, surpassing the requirement of 1,000 in Article 66 of the constitution. [1]

Results

Due to an error in the count, the reported total number of votes was lower than the sum of the valid and invalid votes. [1]
