Breuninger launches innovative mobility hub in Stuttgart
What: The Breuninger parking garage area in Stuttgart's Leonhardsviertel is set to undergo a transformation into a modern mobility hub, integrating various transportation and sustainable mobility concepts.
Why it is important: This project represents a significant step towards sustainable urban development in Stuttgart, offering a comprehensive solution that caters to the modern and mobile urban society. By combining parking spaces, bicycle parking, car sharing, charging infrastructures, and more, the mobility hub aims to reduce traffic volume, enhance the quality of life for residents, and boost the attractiveness of the Leonhardsviertel area for retailers and shoppers alike.
Starting March 4th, the site of the existing Breuninger parking garage will be redeveloped into a state-of-the-art mobility hub, spanning approximately 25,000 m². This innovative project aims to serve as a central point for both individual and shared transportation modes, offering around 480 car parking spaces, 150 bicycle parking spaces, car sharing options, various charging infrastructures, and additional mobility services. The focus on sustainability is evident in the construction materials, such as flexible wood, and features like photovoltaic sails and retention roofs for eco-friendly water management. Breuninger CEO Holger Blecker emphasizes the project's role in contributing to sustainable urban development and enhancing the urban experience for Stuttgart's residents and visitors. As construction begins, alternative parking options are provided to accommodate the temporary unavailability of the Breuninger parking spaces.
