The selected example of re-development of the degraded post-mining areas in Poland

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Economic transformations in Poland in the 1980s among others started the process of liquidation of many mining plants. Areas which until recently were subject to strong influences of mining economy, are now becoming post-mining areas. Degradation of an area, incomplete or scattered information on its legal conditions, its property structure, ecological condition, the existing logistic infrastructure and provision of utilities discourage potential investors from undertaking activities to re-use the area. This article presents an initial analysis of a selected post-mining area, which should make it easier to determine the directions of its future development.
