Dear residents of Háaleiti and Bústaðir
The neighborhood plan for your neighborhood is now in the final stages.
Before we put the finishing touches on the plan, we would like to present the work proposals to you and hear your views.
These work proposals are based on ideas and suggestions that came from the residents and are intended to improve your neighborhood.
2Ideas include improvements in transport, measures to reduce disturbance and pollution from traffic, urban streets, for example by Bústaðvegur, and the strengthening of neighborhood centers. There are also ideas for permits to add apartments, extensions, bolstering playgrounds and green areas and much more.
All these proposals can be viewed on our website.
We also want to meet you. Therefore, we will have an exhibition and presence in Austurver from October 14 to October 20, where you can view the proposals and talk to our experts about the neighborhood plan.
Next week we also want to invite you for walks around the neighborhoods. These neighborhood walks will be advertised separately.
We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the work proposals.
Comments will be received until January 7th 2022. Suggestions and comments can be sent to skipulag@reykjavik.is marked Neighborhood planning Háaleiti – Bústaðir.
We look forward to having a constructive and thorough discussion with you about the future of Háaleiti and Bústaðir.
Attitude survey
Ideas for the development of Miklabraut-Háaleitisbraut and Bústaðavegur
An online survey has been opened here on the web in connection with the presentation of work proposals for the Háaleiti-Bústaðir neighborhood plan.
Now, residents of Háaleiti-Bústaðir and other interested parties can view 3D images of possible development areas by Bústaðavegur and Miklabraut-Háaleitisbraut, which have had a very divided response in the current introductory phase of the district’s neighborhood plan.
This seeks to clarify the position of all age groups on these two main issues in the work proposals.
Everyone is welcome to take part in the online survey, which runs until, and including, January 7th 2022, or as long as the presentation of the neighborhood plan’s work proposals is online.
It should be emphasized that participants are not required to answers any questions and answers will not be personally identifiable in any way.
