For you who want to achieve set goals in a complex urban development project with several parties and stakeholders.
A city park has been on the top of the wish list for the residents of the new district and the Krogabäcks park creates an oasis in the middle of central the district Nya Hovås. The park will be a natural, green meeting place for the residents in the area and is designed for all ages with walking paths, benches, lighting, green areas and a playground. Krogabäcksparken was commissioned by a consortium of builders consisting of HSB, Nord, Skanska and Next Step Group. After a few years of operation by the consortium, the park will be handed over to the City of Gothenburg for operation and maintenance.
For the development of the plans, we have mainly had a dialogue with the Real Estate Office and the Park and Nature Administration in the City of Gothenburg. One of the challenges is that the park is being built adjacent to Krogabäcken a creek, which has been designated as a protected area, with trout that wanders in the creek. To ensure the fish’s needs when the playground was designed, a dialogue was initiated with both the County Administrative Board and the Association of Sport fishers . Thias is an example of our stakeholder dialogue in the implementation of the planning phase. The solution was successful for both man and trout.
