Construction and transportation concerns dominate in Allach-Untermenzing, as the area experiences growing apprehension
In the northwest corner of Munich, the district of Allach-Untermenzing stands as a blend of residential areas, industrial zones, and historical sites. With a current population of 36,218, the district has been experiencing steady growth, a trend that typically brings increased housing demand and infrastructure development.
Recently, a resident's proposal for a public swimming pool was unanimously accepted at the citizens' assembly, adding to the district's ongoing development. However, the search for up-to-date information on the district's future plans for population growth, infrastructure, and development, as well as the concerns of the citizens' initiative Allach Living, has proven challenging.
The citizens' initiative Allach Living, led by Peter Ziegler, has expressed concerns about the district's population growth and has adopted 17 motions, including requests for corresponding funding programs for "social and municipal equality" compared to the average in Munich's green-voting districts.
One of the adopted motions by the citizens' initiative Allach Living is a call for transparency in planning building plans and the sealing quota on a map of green spaces. Another motion aims to halt the construction of any more accommodations for refugees or homeless people in the district.
Infrastructure deficits, such as in schools, social or health facilities, are among the concerns of the citizens' initiative Allach Living. They have also shown interest in being involved in solutions for restoring the compensation biotope on the old railway embankment and combating invasive plants like the Oriental false indigo.
Looking ahead, the Allacher A99 tunnel is scheduled for its first renovation works in 2027, and a 250-bed accommodation facility for homeless families is under construction, expected to be occupied from April 2027.
The Mobility Department is also developing a local mobility concept for the district by 2026, and public participation for school planning on the SVU site and the "Green belt M" at Weinschenkstraße is scheduled for fall/winter.
For more detailed and recent updates on these issues, local Munich government websites, urban planning departments, or announcements from the Allach Living citizens' initiative would be the most direct and reliable information sources.
