© IRPUD/TU Dortmund
During the drought this summer, the relevance and necessity of the ANFO project (adaptation strategy for dealing with the consequences of drought in Olfen) has once again intensified. Following the strategy workshop, which was reported on this website in November 2021, the strategy development was completed. In the next step the planning and implementation of measures took place. To this end, detailed research was conducted to draw up profiles for the adaptation measures, which served as the basis for discussion with experts in another participation format, the workshop on drought adaptation measures.
On Thursday, June 23, 2022, the workshop on drought adaptation measures took place with about 20 local experts from various fields of work in the Leohaus in Olfen. In small groups, the profiles for the adaptation measures in the fields of urban development, agriculture, forestry and water management were reviewed, discussed and supplemented. In addition, the participants evaluated the measures with regard to their effectiveness in a general and locally specific context. Following the workshop, the action profiles were compiled into a comprehensive catalog of measures, which is intended to serve as an aid for players nationwide in dealing with the consequences of drought. In addition, the universally applicable guideline for the development of measures for municipalities was gradually completed.
Within the next months, the project team will work on selecting and implementing pilot measures in the city of Olfen. To this end, talks are currently being held with various players from the four fields of action in order to examine the implementation of individual measures in Olfen. The implementation of some pilot measures, especially in the city center, has already been initiated by the project.

The TU Dortmund campus is located near the Dortmund West interchange, where the A45 Sauerland line crosses the B1/A40 Ruhr expressway. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. Coming from the A45, you can turn onto Stockumer Straße via Universitätsstraße. This in turn is connected to Baroper Straße, along which Campus South extends. If you take the exit of the A-40, the route via Emil-Figge Straße, Marie-Curie Allee to Baroper Straße makes sense. If you turn from Baroper Straße into August-Schmidt Straße, you have the possibility to reach the parking lot directly behind the GB III.
The South Campus is connected via Stockumerstraße by bus lines 440 and 449, which run every 10 minutes. Campus South can be reached on foot from the Am Gardenkamp stop, and the Eichlinghofen H-Bahn station is also located near the Eichlinghofen stop. The bus lines connect to the U42 light rail line at the Barop Parkhaus stop, which provides connections to the Dortmund-Hombruch district and Dortmund downtown.
From Dortmund-Eichlinghofen, the South Campus is connected to the H-Bahn network via the Eichlinghofen H-Bahn station. Line 1 runs here every 10 minutes, and the South Campus is served by the Campus Süd stop.
A connection to Campus North is also provided via the H-Bahn. Line 2 shuttles between Campus North and Campus South every 5 minutes.
The AirportExpress is a fast and convenient means of transport from Dortmund Airport (DTM) to Dortmund Central Station, taking you there in little more than 20 minutes.
