Towards an engaging and vibrant city center

The City Center Vision 2040 promotes the attractiveness of the center, maintains the city’s position as a city with strong employment opportunities, and supports its development into a significant cultural and tourism destination.

As a resource-wise city, the goal is to increase sustainable transport such as walking, cycling, and public transit.

Thriving essential services are the base of the vibrant city and its center. It is challenging to develop vitality without functioning schools, daycare centers, and exercise facilities, library, and cultural services.

Zoning is the foundation of urban planning

Zoning involves dozens of ongoing projects annually. The work ranges from zoning alterations for individual plots to extensive residential and business areas. We use zoning to develop existing areas and create the conditions for the city’s future growth, services, and vitality.
