Plaines-du-Loup Lausanne: preliminary studies for utilization plans 2 and 3
The city of Lausanne is developing the Plaines-du-Loup eco-neighborhood to meet the needs of the heavily used Lausanne agglomeration. We carried out comprehensive preliminary studies for the utilization plans for the second and third stages.
Are you looking for an experienced partner? We will be happy to advise you.
The Plaines-du-Loup eco-neighborhood in the north of Lausanne is an example of how new living spaces can be created while taking ecological, social and economic aspects into account. The City of Lausanne is developing successive land-use plans based on the Plaines-du-Loup regional spatial strategies. The preliminary studies for the land-use plans for the second and third stages aimed to define the future topography of the district, material management during construction, rainwater management and Service pipe access in a coordinated manner. This early coordination prior to the realization of the real estate projects is the prerequisite for achieving the sustainability goals.
