Subsidies necessary
Costs for the Igls ice canal rise to € 31 million
The City of Innsbruck is increasing its shareholder contribution by a one-off €1.1 million: Further talks with the federal government are now underway. Neos see this as a "fatal signal".
The Innsbruck Olympic ice track master plan project, which aims to regain the homologation (approval) of the combined artificial ice track that expired in 2024, will be more expensive than originally agreed. The total costs of homologation were estimated at around €27 million based on the price in January 2021. This means that the city would have had to pay €9.1 million.
However, talks are currently underway to secure the entire one-third financing if possible or to increase the federal government's funding contribution.

Construction cost index has risen massively
However, the "Construction Cost Index 2020" for residential and housing estate construction rose by 21.98% in real terms between January 2021 and February 2024, reported Innsbruck's BM Johannes Anzengruber after the city senate meeting on Wednesday. This increased the project costs to €31 million including a designated reserve. "The federal government has submitted a draft funding agreement with a reduced funding amount of around €8.7 million. However, talks are currently underway to secure the entire one-third funding if possible or to increase the federal government's funding contribution," said Anzengruber, reporting on the current status.
The city senate unanimously decided to increase the shareholder contribution from €9.1 million to €10.3 million. "Once again, the taxpayers have to foot the bill," criticizes Neos-LA Susanna Riedlsperger. This is a "fatal signal".
