Remodeling of the Peace Square Garage: What does the renovation bring in the heart of Bonn?

For some time now, the Peace Square Garage has been extensively renovated, whereby the work is carried out during operation and in the event of temporary closures of the access roads. Stadtwerke spokesman Maximilian Mühlens said that the measures are not carried out by Bonner City Parkaum GmbH, which is only responsible for the operation of the garage. The owner of the garage, the "Bouwfonds European Real Estate Parking Fund Bonn GmbH" from Hamburg, conducts the work. It is planned to replace more than 150 old concrete supports with narrower ones by October 2025, as well as to renew soil and ceiling coatings. In addition, energy-saving LED lights are installed on all parking levels.

In order to improve the barrier -free accessibility of the garage, the owner will have another elevator installed in the stairwell to the medical center on Friedensplatz by the end of 2025. After completing the renovation, 375 modern and wider parking spaces should be available. In the first step of the renovation, four electric charging spaces and twelve XXL parking spaces with a width of almost 3.50 meters are also built. The path guidance system is adapted and optimized, and it is planned to temporarily block the garage entrance under the star gate house and the connection tunnel to the parking area Friedenplatz.

City-Parkaum GmbH operates other underground garages in Bonn in addition to the peace scale garage. In 2017, the market garage with 279 parking spaces was completely renovated on three parking decks, with some places fell away in order to meet the enlarged cars. City-Parkaum GmbH was founded in 1970 and half belongs to the municipal utility company and the Bonn Parking community, which consists of Bonn City merchants.
