Celebrated for its sustainability efforts, Copenhagen embarked on the groundbreaking Leifsgade project to transform urban infrastructure. Situated within the dynamic Islands Brygge district, Leifsgade symbolizes Copenhagen’s commitment to creating a sustainable, dynamic, and livable cityscape by advancing parking solutions and enhancing community amenities.
Amidst Copenhagen’s pursuit of a more sustainable future, optimizing urban space and reducing reliance on traditional parking solutions became paramount. The city aimed to minimize congestion, create additional leisure areas, and ensure safety and efficiency in densely populated areas, aligning with its Carbon Neutrality by 2025 plan.
Westfalia’s innovative solution for Leifsgade marked a paradigm shift in urban parking infrastructure. Seamlessly integrating automated parking technology with the city’s landscape, Leifsgade maximizes parking capacity while repurposing surface area into a community playground, fostering engagement and sustainability. Powered by the advanced Savanna.NET® software, Leifsgade’s automated system efficiently manages vehicle storage and retrieval, significantly reducing waiting times and human errors.
