Short Outline
The action plan makes proposals to Swiss public authorities on what could be successful activities to encourage the recycling of industrial areas.
Abstract
The authors (Metron Raumentwicklung AG) are currently commissioned by the federal planning
office, federal environment authority and the Canton of Aargau's planning, building and
environment unit to develop an action plan for the recycling of industrial areas. The measures
were developed on a case-study-based approach. On the base of a theoretical framework
(hypothesis) almost 40 interviews with private landowners, developers and representatives of
local and cantonal authorities were carried out on 10 different cases. Out of these findings, and
with the inputs of the accompaigning group, we developed a set of 18 measures in 8 bundles on
what initiatives by public authorities could be helpful and effective to booster the re-use of
industrial brownfields.
Keywords
