Things are moving forward on the former MD site in the heart of Dachau.

Soon there will be construction going up there.

Dachau - The site of the former MD paper mill is being prepared step by step for the development of a new quarter in the middle of the city.

After the demolition work has been completed (we reported), the soil remediation continues.

Now the permits of the district office for the construction of the Mühlbach provisional and the excavation permit for the Mayersche Terraces are available, as a spokesman for Isaria München Projektentwicklungs GmbH announced.

The provisional brook and the excavation are the last works before the start of construction. For the subsequent phase, however, a legally binding development plan is still required, which the City of Dachau is working on in cooperation with the Isaria project development company and the property owner Deutsche Wohnen. As Lord Mayor Florian Hartmann explained in an interview with the local newspaper, the building committee will discuss the plan in its February meeting.

"In the last few weeks we had to remove the foundations of the former sewage treatment plant on the Mayersche Terraces as part of the soil renovation," says Isaria project manager Michael Gerstner. “The fragments are recycled directly on site and prepared for reuse. The foundation removal process was very noisy. At this point I would like to thank you for the patience and understanding that our neighbors have shown. Thanks to God, the worst is over. ”With the excavation permit, the topsoil can now be removed, cleaned and rehabilitated. The site is then cleared of all contaminated sites and ready for new development. According to Gerstner, the excavation work will begin next year and is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

Another “milestone” for Isaria is the approval for the construction of the Mühlbach provisional facility. The Mühlbach is to be diverted into a new provisional river bed in the spring. The measure is necessary so that the superstructure of the previously underground Mühlbach can be dismantled and the original river bed can be cleaned and rehabilitated.

At the beginning of the new year, a gravel bed will be built as a temporary river, into which the Mühlbach will be diverted during the renovation work. In the future, the Mühlbach should run back to the surface and, with its promenades, become a valuable local recreation area for all Dachau residents. “The reclamation of the Mühlbach is also important for us from an ecological point of view. The cooling of urban spaces through open water surfaces, the eventual widening of the river bed and the integration into generous green areas require intelligent urban development concepts, which we are working on at full speed, ”says the managing director of Isaria, David Christmann. As reported, TSV Dachau last founded a surfing department in 1865 with the prospect of an artificial surf wave on the Mühlbach.

Isaria boss Christmann is therefore in good spirits: "We can all look forward to the new Mühlbachviertel!"
