The CityLoops project brings together seven European cities – Apeldoorn, Bodø, Mikkeli, Porto, Seville, Høje-Taastrup and Roskilde – to pilot a series of demonstration actions to close the loop of two of the most important waste streams in Europe: Construction and Demolition Waste, and Biowaste. Their ultimate aim is to become circular cities in which no resource goes to waste, driving the transition to the circular economy.
Watch the demonstration videos of the project below.
In CityLoops, the Roskilde Kommune has been carrying out activities around Musicon. The experiences gained helped have helped the implementation of circular principles in the construction strategies of the municipality.
Høje-Taastrup demolished concrete into aggregate and used it as a foundation for its new city hall. This will be Denmark’s largest public building with a recycled foundation.
