Initial situation

Initial situation

For decades, the broad street space has been dominated by parked cars, preventing an attractive design and the greening of the public space. As there is too little space between the Wilhelminian-era buildings for a conventional underground car park, parking solutions are lacking.

Concept

Concept

Working with its partner WÖHR Autoparksysteme, WÖHR + BAUER developed the concept of accommodating cars in a space-saving, fully automated underground car park.

Result

WÖHR + BAUER realised a fully automated underground car park for residents which, at the time it went into operation, was unique in Germany in this size category. Four lifts arrange the cars in an underground, fully automated transfer system manufactured by WÖHR Autoparksysteme GmbH (Wöhr Multiparker 740). This not only saves a great deal of space, but also valuable time when looking for a parking space.

The facility impresses with outstanding technology, maximum convenience and efficient management of the parking areas. The system is based on a technology that has proven itself in comparable facilities over around 20 years of smooth operation – clear evidence of its reliability and quality. Users benefit from a modern, safe and convenient parking process, while the surrounding area is relieved by the elimination of search traffic and parked vehicles at street level. This enhances the quality of the environment and the well-being of residents and passers-by.

The “Land of Ideas” location initiative recognised the underground car park as a “Selected Landmark” – a symbol of innovative strength and future orientation.

The project should serve as a model for conversions elsewhere. You only have to look at the before-and-after pictures of Donnersbergerstraße to be convinced that this is a good strategy.
