Saxony-Anhalt: A good 90 million euros for more attractive cities and places to live

Magdeburg (dpa/sa) - Inner cities should be revitalized and attractive residential locations supported: Saxony-Anhalt and the federal government have made more than 90 million euros available for urban development in the state this year. "We are observing that people are leaving the metropolitan areas to settle in rural but well-developed regions. We are working on that. Every day. The projects approved as part of urban development funding are living examples of this," said Infrastructure Minister Lydia Hüskens (FDP) on Friday. With the help of the funds, parks and squares were redesigned and buildings were converted or modernized.
