Contemporary Forms of the Spatial Organization of Industrial Locations

Contemporary production techniques, high standards of environmental protection, new methods of designing buildings and the environment, have enabled a higher degree of integrating production activities in the urban area. The advantages of using existing industrial locations are the following: retaining urban spatial organisation in the sense of the mixed use of space, slower urban expansion into unbuilt areas, an opportunity to arrange neglected and rundown areas because of smaller costs of preparing the land – existing traffic and public utility infrastructure, quality design and organisation of new buildings and their surroundings, employment increase, and slowing down processes of the encroachment of low-quality construction programmes. There are important unused areas of deserted or vacant industrial locations in towns that should be used to locate contemporary forms of production activities: technological, scientific and university-research parks, techno-units and business incubators.
