Overview
- Römerhof and Borsigallee are designated as priority sites for roughly 1,200 spaces, with Borsigallee slated for an added 534 spots and Römerhof tied to the delayed U5 extension now expected in 2029.
- Additional locations at Taunusblick, Kalbach and Frankfurter Berg could provide about 836 more spaces, subject to feasibility and nature-conservation reviews, with Taunusblick requiring a new A5 off-ramp without onward city access.
- The city has not set a start date and must still prepare building and financing proposals for approval by the city council, though officials say implementation should not take decades.
- Short-term steps include a continued partnership with the Hessen-Center for shared parking and an examination of event-linked capacity such as a possible facility at Gateway Gardens near the planned arena.
- ADAC and business groups back the concept as a basis for easing access, while the VCD argues the scale would serve only a small share of the roughly 460,000 daily commuters and calls for more dispersed regional sites.
