Creating safe and sustainable urban spaces in Borås

Viskans park is a visionary urban development program transforming Borås with a cohesive park stretching from south to north. A key focus? The new pedestrian path from Göta to Fredriksborg School — where innovative, wildlife-friendly lighting ensures safety and harmony with nature.

With warm-toned, motion-controlled lights managed by the smart Citygrid system, this solution minimizes light pollution and energy use while providing safety and comfort. The thoughtful design, adapted to the natural surroundings, is a perfect balance between people’s needs and environmental care.

– We are pleased with the results and the flexibility provided by the ability to dim and adjust the lighting, says Gustav Axell, landscape engineer at the City of Borås’s technical administration.

A big thank you to the City of Borås and everyone involved!
