Vereinigt/Verenigde/UnitedPedestrianisation of Downtown DoressaAs part of the Confederate Governments plan to decrease carbon emissions in Doressa, construction has begun on the pedestrianisation of the city's downtown area. With the exception of some roads connecting to the seaside promenades all roads in the city's downtown will be torn up and turning into pedestrian roads with shops and business lining the streets. Much greenery is also planned to be added to these streets. It is also hoped that this will also increase tourism to the city and boost the local economy. All bridges across the river Cerrot in the downtown area will also be pedestrianised.
To allow for easy access to the rest of the city, bus lanes are being planned to connect all parts of the city and an underground electric metro has also started construction. For those coming into the city, a train line will run straight to the city center to a new train station on Drachenstraße. With all this new infrastructure, the people living in the downtown of the city will still be able to leave and travel without having to walk. For those wishing to use cars outside the city or traveled to the city by car, a carpark is being built outside the downtown which will allow these people to park there cars for a small fee of 10 DAR everyday.
Doressa Docks to be ExpandedAs well as the planned pedestrianisation of Downtown Doressa, the city's docks are also set to be expanded and improved. When this was announced by the Mayor of Doressa, Natalie Hulst said,
For the past decades the port of Doressa has be inadequate for the needs of this city and this country. It is time the port was expanded and improved.
The port of Doressa authority has welcomed this move adding they have been asking for this years now. The project will expand the cruise ship terminal on the north side of the city to allow for more tourists to arrive in the city by boat. Also on the north a new ferry terminal is to be built. This be for the new ferry lines connecting Doressa to many other cities throughout the Confederacy.
Doressa cruise ship terminalOn the south side of the city, a huge expansion of the cargo ship facilities and warehouses has begun. This will expand the ports import and export capacity massively and help continue Darnussia's economy as Darnussia's economy is still very export focused. A train connection is also being planned to allow for further ease of transport to and from the port.
