Abstract

Infrastructure planning in most cities is a process of sectoral implementation which produces independent sectoral solutions to urbanisation issues. With the advent of sustainable practices, along with the challenges posed by climate change, cities are discovering important synergies among urban infrastructure sectors which are being used to reduce the urban footprint. In the need for sustainable infrastructure, the city of Frankfurt am Main, although operating in a sectoral manner, has learned from past experiences and has progressively developed a collaborative approach to infrastructure planning. This collaborative approach increases the possibilities for trans-sectoral projects and reduces the consumption of natural resources. This paper showcases interesting sectoral and trans-sectoral projects in the infrastructure sectors of energy, water, wastewater, solid waste and urban agriculture. The showcased projects have been selected from a study of 36 operational, programmatic and educational initiatives implemented by the city.

Keywords: collaborative planning, sustainable infrastructure, trans-sectoral projects, renewable energies

Streszczenie
Planowanie infrastruktury w miastach jest procesem wdrażania sektorowego, który przynosi rozwiązania problemów urbanizacyjnych. Wraz z pojawieniem się zrównoważonych praktyk obok wyzwań związanych ze zmianami klimatu miasta zaczęły odkrywać ważną synergię między sektorami infrastruktury miejskiej. Korzystając z wielu lat doświadczeń, architekci i urbaniści z Frankfurtu nad Menem stopniowo rozwijają swoją współpracę w planowaniu infrastruktury. Podejście oparte na współdziałaniu zwiększa możliwości projektów międzysektorowych i zmniejsza zużycie zasobów naturalnych. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia interesujące koncepcje sektorowe i międzysektorowe w zakresie infrastruktury sektorów energii, wody, ścieków, odpadów stałych i rolnictwa miejskiego. Prezentowane propozycje zostały wybrane z 36 inicjatyw operacyjnych, programowych i edukacyjnych realizowanych przez miasto.
