Framework plan Westbahnhof
The current surroundings of Jena West station show deficits that do not do justice to the importance of the urban space as a gateway to the city and the neighboring "Neue Carl-Zeiss-Promenade". In particular, the quality of stay is too low.
The planned expansion of Jena West station into a mobility hub close to the city center is intended not only to restructure the area around the station in terms of urban development, but also to make Westbahnhofstrasse and Schillerstrasse, including Engelplatz, more attractive towards the city center.
In the meantime, a framework plan has been developed by the city administration and the commissioned planning office BahnStadt GmbH, which was presented to the city council and the city community. The presentation of the results took place on 04.11.2024. You can find the framework plan in the download list.

Ergebnis Bürgerbeteiligung
Almost 200 comments on the various scenarios and variants of the framework plan were received during the online participation, and the pages on the Westbahnhof framework plan were accessed around 5,200 times on the public participation platform. Reason enough to take stock and say thank you. Thanks also go to the 60 or so people who took part in the planning workshop in the historic town hall on 21.02.2024.
