GIVE LIFE TO VEJLE, RECLYCLE ROSBORG

ROSBORG AREA, VEJLE (DENMARK)

CIVIL ENGINEERING BACHELOR PROJECT (VIA UNIVERSITY + VEJLE KOMMUNE)

The city of Vejle is becoming an important city of the Jutland Peninsula in Denmark, it is gaining population each year  due to its location and the important  industry that the city has.

 

Vejle is also one of the 100 resilient cities whose task is to anticipate, cope and  recover  from  states  of impending and actual danger without collapsing, while swiftly and efficiently  adapting  itself  to  new  situations through complex processes of learning and  implementation  to  create  a  network  of  cities  in  order  to  create  a plan  together  to  face  challenges  togueter.

According to this philosophy of continuous anticipation, in 2050 Vejle is thought to have more than 40.000 new inhabitants,  so  the  population  will  exceed  100,000 inhabitantas.

 

The city will need to create  new  houses  for  this  people,  new  neighborhoods  will  be developed.  Rosberg will  be one of  those  neighborhoods.

 

The  area has a surface  around 800.000  m2   and is located only 1Km far  from the city center. Actually  in the  area  there  is  a  recycling  plant  that  will  be removed  to  create  the  new  neighborhood.

  

According to the  municipality  demands,  the new  area  must  have 3.000  dwellings  for  5.000  new  inhabitants, and no more of the 50% of the  total  surface  can be built. The  new  area must  also  have  commercial  activity, so the the commercial area must be around 20.000 m2 .

 

Vejle has many problems  with floods, so this area could be used as a way  to solve  these problems and also as a way  to change  the  social life in Vejle.
