    Project Stakeholders

    Wälderbushaltestelle, Doren

    A thoughtfully designed bus shelter.

    In the municipality of Doren, the prototype of the new “Wälderbushaltestelle” was unveiled, which is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The prefabrication and assembly of this project were carried out by Fetz Holzbau, a renowned timber construction company in Vorarlberg.

    The materials not only give the bus stop an appealing appearance and organic integration into the landscape but also ensure optimal resistance to various weather conditions.

    Practical elements such as bicycle racks are integrated, making the bus stop a versatile and sustainable hub for various modes of transportation. The concept goes even beyond the mere waiting area, additionally offering a circular seating area in the same appealing style. This area is pleasantly shaded by a centrally placed tree.

    In remote areas where future bus stops have no direct power connections, a photovoltaic system will be installed as a sustainable energy source to ensure adequate lighting.
