Since spring 2022, in close cooperation with Service Unit Economy and tourism.. and with an external team of experts around the Viennese office RAUMPOSITION, the largest commercial and industrial area in western Austria has been made fit for the future. Through an integrated planning approach, topics such as mobility, energy and site development are being developed jointly and interlinked.

What can an existing commercial area look like in the future? What qualities does an attractive working environment need? How can mobility function in the future? All of these questions and many other aspects will be examined in greater detail with the broad participation of entrepreneurs, employees, and experts from within the municipality, as well as interested parties, during excursions, workshops, surveys, and broad information events.

The goal is to present a development strategy for Rossau at the end of the two-year process, which will lay the foundation for the industrial park of the future. However, short- and medium-term solutions are also to be developed during the project phase.

Retail structure analysis: local supply situation

Retail structure analysis: The local supply situation in Innsbruck, Rum and Völs (overall view)

Since fall 2020, the updated, superordinate retail structure analysis for the location area of Innsbruck, Rum and Völs has been available to the city of Innsbruck. The order was placed jointly by the Tyrol Chamber of Commerce and the City of Innsbruck. The aim is to continue the time series started in 2002 and thus to obtain a monitoring of the various changes in the retail sector in a long-term view. For example, the intensified supra-local competition, the growing importance of online retailing for consumers, population growth, the change of product range in certain business locations, expansion efforts of shopping centers, etc. are considered. The results are to be used to document changes in the retail landscape and to create a sound, updated basis for further decisions on retail developments in relation to Innsbruck as a location.

in 2014, a team of experts developed potential development areas and various possible uses for the Hötting West, Kranebitten and Harterhofplateau areas and presented them to citizens. On August 10, 2016, the City Senate took approving note of the result of the concretizing plans for the so-called "development area 1" (the areas on the valley floor west of the university and on the southern Harterhof plateau). As a result, the city politicians, the commissioned team of experts and the municipal departments provided information on the details of the planned development on October 6, 2016 at the Kolpinghaus Hötting-West. In an exhibition on the topics of urban development, open space, urban water engineering and nature conservation, as well as traffic, the approximately 220 visitors were then able to obtain further information in a direct exchange and to submit suggestions, wishes or criticism in writing.
