The city of Essen has announced that the winning design from a recent competition will be awarded for the planning services for performance phases 2 (preliminary design) and 3 (design planning) of the redesign of Barbarossaplaz in Essen-Stoppenberg.

The total costs for the redesign of Barbarossaplaz are expected to be around 6.2 million euros. However, the final construction costs will be decided at a later date with a separate construction resolution.

Urban development funding will cover 80% of the costs for the redesign of Barbarossaplaz, amounting to approximately 280,000 EUR. The city's own contribution will make up the remaining 20%, totalling around 70,000 euros.

The winning engineering firm will be commissioned for the planning services for the redesign of Barbarossaplaz, as part of the performance phases 2 and 3 of the realization competition. The realization competition included a promise to commission the winning design in stages for performance phases 2, 3, 5, and 6.
