  • Pressekonferenz
    Pressekonferenz Vassilakou/Sima: Linienkreuz U2/U5 – Erstmaliger „Blick in den Untergrund“ 28. April 2016, Steinsaal 2, Rathaus Mit: Öffi-Stadträtin Ulli Sima Verkehrsstadträtin Maria Vassilakou Wien wächst – die Öffis wachsen mit! Im Jahr 2030 werden über zwei Millionen Menschen in unserer Stadt wohnen. Um mit diesem Wachstum Schritt zu halten, muss auch das Öffi-Angebot ausgebaut und verbessert werden. Nach großen Stadtentwicklungsprojekten, wie die U2-Verlängerung nach aspern Seestadt, erfolgt mit dem Linienkreuz U2/U5 ein wichtiger Lückenschluss im innerstädtischen U-Bahn-Netz. Damit kann Wien weiter wachsen und Fahrgäste werden auch zu Stoßzeiten genug Platz haben. Jeder dritte Fahrgast der Wiener Linien ist derzeit im Einzugsbereich von 13A, 43,6, U6 und U3 unterwegs. Netzanalysen und Variantenuntersuchungen haben ergeben, dass mit der Realisierung des Linienkreuzes U2/U5 gerade diese Linien bestmöglich entlastet werden. Mehrere Hunderttausend Fahrgäste werden durch neue, direkte Verbindungen oder die Entlastung auf den Parallelrouten und Umsteigeknoten tagtäglich vom Linienkreuz U2/U5 profitieren. Durch die neuen U-Bahn-Verbindungen und Umsteigeknoten werden sich die Fahrgäste gleichmäßiger im Netz verteilen. Zahlen & Fakten im Überblick Streckenführung und weitere Vorgangsweise › Der Bau des Linienkreuzes wird in zwei Baustufen erfolgen. Die U5 schafft eine Verbindung vom 17. Bezirk bis in die Innenstadt zum Karlsplatz. Die U2 wird vom Rathaus bis zum Matzleinsdorfer Platz und in der letzten Ausbaustufe bis zum Wienerberg führen. › In der ersten Baustufe wird die U2 vom Schottentor über Rathaus in Richtung 7., 6. und 5. Bezirk bis Matzleinsdorfer Platz verlängert. Die neue U5 wird im ersten Schritt vom Rathaus zur neuen Station Frankhplatz/Altes AKH gebaut. Sie übernimmt die Bestandsstrecke der U2 vom Rathaus zum Karlsplatz.

  • Working for the IAEA
    Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition From the Editors This Guidebook is intended to provide practical information for United States citizens embarking on or considering an assignment at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria. Since its first appearance in 1989, the Guidebook has been revised frequently to reflect changes occurring at the IAEA, within the United States Support Program to IAEA Safeguards (USSP), and in Vienna. The 2018 Edition reflects these changes at the time of publication. Nevertheless, IAEA salaries, allowances, and other benefits change, as do telephone numbers, addresses, and websites. Currency exchange rates, prices, and store hours in Vienna inevitably fluctuate. We regret any inconvenience this may cause our readers. The 2018 Edition of the Guidebook was prepared by the International Safeguards Project Office (ISPO) under the auspices of the USSP and was published by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).

  • Historic Centre of Vienna
    WHC Nomination Documentation File Name: 1033.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND THE NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Historic Centre of Vienna DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 16th December 2001 STATE PARTY: AUSTRIA CRITERIA: C (ii)(iv)(vi) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 25th Session of the World Heritage Committee The Committee inscribed the Historic Centre of Vienna on the World Heritage List under criteria (ii), (iv), and (vi): Criterion (ii): The urban and architectural qualities of the Historic Centre of Vienna bear outstanding witness to a continuing interchange of values throughout the second millennium. Criterion (iv): Three key periods of European cultural and political development - the Middle Ages, the Baroque period, and the Gründerzeit - are exceptionally well illustrated by the urban and architectural heritage of the Historic Centre of Vienna. Criterion (vi): Since the 16th century Vienna has been universally acknowledged to be the musical capital of Europe. While taking note of the efforts already made for the protection of the historic town of Vienna, the Committee recommended that the State Party undertake the necessary measures to review the height and volume of the proposed new development near the Stadtpark, east of the Ringstrasse, so as not to impair the visual integrity of the historic town. Furthermore, the Committee recommended that special attention be given to continuous monitoring and control of any changes to the morphology of the historic building stock. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS Vienna developed from early Celtic and Roman settlements into a Medieval and Baroque city, the capital of the Austro- Hungarian Empire. It played an essential role as a leading European music centre, from the great age of Viennese Classicism through the early part of the 20th century.
