in the fashion branch. The most recent closings included C&A on the Annenstrasse and Zara on the Eiserner Tor. In contrast, Salewa, Högl Shoes and Montblanc opened new shops in the city centre during 2021. The vacancy rate has remained low at roughly 4% for a longer period, and the turnover rate is also normally below average. The realisation of various traffic concepts will be an important factor for the future development of central locations. Plans for the construction of a two-line underground system have been side-lined, but far-reaching (and generally positive from the viewpoint of the retail trade and gastronomy) changes can still be expected which will lead to the extension of the boulevards. In particular, the design of the western section of the inner city (bet- ween the Herrengasse and the Mur River) will be
re-evaluated. A new pedestrian zone was establis- hed in the Schmiedgasse and more extensive areas will be created for bicycle paths and sidewalks as well as green areas and trees.
