Spatial Development Concept Pratteln

Pratteln has developed noticeably and visibly in recent years. This is underlined by the neighbourhood plans at the railway station and the lively construction activity in the wider municipal area. As in the pas—after the establishment of the Rhine salt works and the railway connection—the municipality is still operating in the dynamic environment of the Basel region. But the framework conditions are changing: Working, living, leisure and mobility are changing and becoming more diverse. Development areas are finite and nature is receiving more attention.

Despite all this dynamism, what has been lacking to date is a balanced and broad-based perspective. The spatial development concept closes this gap and takes an overall view of Pratteln. It brings together the topics of settlement, open space, climate, energy and mobility and defines a coherent perspective in the vision for the future. Thematic sub-strategies and various measures (object sheets) show how the vision for the future is to be implemented. What was still fragmented and disparate a few years ago will gradually be brought together.
