Integrated Urban Development Plan (INSEK) for Radebeul 2040

The town is updating its INSEK

The town of Radebeul is revising its Integrated Urban Development Concept (INSEK). The aim is to shape the town’s future development in collaboration with politicians, the local authority and residents.

Workflow for updating the INSEK 2040

The city administration is developing the technical foundations and analyses in collaboration with complan Kommunalberatung, the consultancy firm supporting the process. Political bodies are regularly involved in the process and discuss the interim results.

Public participation is a key component of the working process. Residents’ experiences, ideas and suggestions are to be incorporated into the INSEK 2040.

The following participation formats are planned for this purpose:

• 24 September 2026 – Neighbourhood walk in Wahnsdorf (further information can be found >> here)
• 1 September to 31 October 2026 – Online survey ( >> you can take part here) (the link needs to be added)
• 6 October 2026 – ‘Stadtwerkstatt’ as a public citizens’ event (further information can be found >> here)
• 1 September 2026 to 28 February 2027 – Ideas wall at the Technical Town Hall of Radebeul Municipal Council, 1st floor, Urban Development Office (Mondays and Fridays 09:00 to 12:00, and Tuesdays and Thursdays 09:00 to 12:00 and 13:00 to 18:00) Do pop in and simply pin your ideas, suggestions and comments to the board
• Spring/Summer 2027 – ‘Future Workshop’ as a public citizens’ event (link with further information to be provided in due course)

We will provide separate information on the individual opportunities for public involvement and the relevant dates.

The INSEK Radebeul 2040 is due to be finalised by the end of 2027.

What is an INSEK and what is its purpose?

An Integrated Urban Development Concept (INSEK) is a strategic planning tool for the future development of a town. It sets out the town’s objectives for the coming years, the challenges it faces and the key measures required. The INSEK serves as a guide for decisions made by the city administration and for investment in the city. It is also often an important prerequisite for receiving funding from the federal government, the state or other funding bodies.

An INSEK takes a holistic view of various thematic areas. These include, for example, housing, transport, the economy, tourism, environmental protection, education, culture, social services, as well as public spaces, parks and green spaces.

Current status

The town of Radebeul drew up its first INSEK in 2002. An update was carried out in 2015 to take account of new developments and requirements.

Ten years have passed since then, during which the framework conditions have changed once again. Issues such as climate adaptation, the energy transition, mobility, demographic trends and digitalisation are becoming increasingly important. It is therefore necessary to review and update the existing plan once again.

Integrated Urban Development Concept (INSEK) 2015

The Integrated Urban Development Concept (INSEK) was unanimously adopted by Radebeul Town Council at a public meeting on 16 December 2015.
Prior to the City Council’s adoption of the INSEK, the draft plan was made available to the general public for information and discussion as part of the public consultation process between 15 June and 31 July 2015.

Since December 2017, the key points of the INSEK have been summarised in a brochure.
