A key part of Urban Mediaspace Aarhus
is an innovative and fully automated
parking facility with 1,000 parking spaces.
Here, you leave your vehicle in a light and
pleasant terminal with views of the bay,
after which it is mechanically conveyed to
an empty slot underground. Architecturally,
parking should be a carefully conceived
quality experience. Thanks to its fully
automated solution, the car park will be
the largest and most advanced automated
parking system in Europe.
The parking terminals where drivers leave
and collect their cars are an integrated
part of the building’s substructure. Light
and transparent, the terminals are positioned
on an esplanade running down
towards the water. You drive your car into
a box, and it disappears into the ground.
You are then free to ascend up into the
building or venture out into the city. When
you come to pick up your car, it is brought
up to you.
The automated parking facility represents
an investment in a thriving city life, as
well as a high quality of life in Aarhus. It
replaces a large number of conventional
parking spaces along the streets and in
the squares, freeing up space for other
pursuits. The facility is intended to inspire
new parking solutions which are well
integrated with the city and provide a
high-quality experience for users.
