Location & approach

By car

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.

By bus and train

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.

The H-Bahn (Suspended Monorail System)

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.

By plane

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. From Dortmund Central Station, you can continue to the university campus by interurban railway (S-Bahn). A larger range of international flight connections is offered at Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), which is about 60 kilometres away and can be directly reached by S-Bahn from the university station.

Map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent “Technologiepark”.

Evolving Regions – Update the regional climate impact analyses

04/05/2022

Exemplary dashboard climate impact analysis Evolving Regions

IRPUD is developing regional climate impact analyses for seven regions with a total of 100 municipalities in North Rhine-Westphalia as part of the Evolving Regions project. We are using these analyses together with regional and local stakeholders within the framework of roadmap processes to identify possible locations for climate adaptation measures. Since the last version of the climate impact analyses, we have focused on the preparation of results and the transparency of the method and the results. The aim is to make it easier for stakeholders to access the climate impact analyses, which are processed in interactive dashboards using the Tableau software, and enable a "gamified" approach to the enormous depth of information in the analyses and the basic data. This approach also applies to users who have little experience with geographic information systems.

The latest version of the climate impact analyses contains ten detailed analyses for different climate impacts of the climatic influences of heat, drought, heavy rainfall and floods. The integration of various filter functions - e.g. the analysis of different future scenarios or municipalities - and highlighting within the interactive dashboards allows a direct comparison of the results and simplifies the identification of hotspots where adaptation measures should be primarily located due to the high climate impact. Furthermore, in order to be able to better assess and evaluate the climate impacts in detail, maps with basic climatic data were added to the interactive dashboards, such as the water depths of various heavy rainfall scenarios.

In the context of the project, IRPUD took the lead in publishing the scientific article "Comparing Climate Impact Assessments for Rural Adaptation Planning in Germany and the Netherlands" in the journal "Urban Planning" in August 2021 (https://doi.org/10.17645/up.v6i3.4269). The publication compares the Dutch and the Evolving Regions approach to climate impact assessments, and provides conclusions and advice for further elaborations of the two approaches.
