Participation of local residents key to success: Copenhagen's exemplary urban development project honored
The Holmbladsgade district of Copenhagen is the winner of the Bilfinger Berger Award 2009. In this area, decisions on investments in social infrastructure and in the modernization of residential buildings, roads and squares were largely made by the residents themselves. This meant that the successful development of the former problem area was accompanied by a high degree of acceptance among the people who live there. In July 2009, Prof. Dr. Klaus Töpfer, former head of the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) and Herbert Bodner, Chairman of the Executive Board at Bilfinger Berger, presented the Award in Copenhagen to representatives of the city.

Prognos study for Bilfinger Berger: Environmental protection and social harmony top priorities for city dwellers
If inhabitants have their way, German cities in the year 2038 will be known primarily for their environmental awareness and social harmony. Greater technological advancement, on the other hand, is not a desirable goal for most. That is the result of a study the Prognos Institute carried out for Bilfinger Berger in November. The survey marked the start of an international competition that the construction and services Group hopes will provide new impetus for the development of German cities.
