Glattpark

Glattpark is a large construction project in Switzerland that took shape in Opfikon, close to the border to Zürich.

As part of the construction project a new neighbourhood was built by 2020; it is designed to provide room for 7,000 residents and about the same number of jobs.

Some of the favourable locational factors used to market the area are the direct proximity to the city of Zürich, where similar construction projects are being realized in Oerlikon and Seebach.

In addition to the Glattalbahn, which runs the length and breadth of the southern and western side of the neighbourhood, several bus lines linking it to public transport are under discussion.

On the western side, the four-lane Thurgauerstrasse leads to the intersection of Opfikon with the Highway A51 (airport motorway).
