Vision

Around 80 per cent of the Uri population live in the valley floor of Uri, where industrial, trade and service businesses are also concentrated. This area has experienced additional large growth impulse through the opening of the longest railway tunnel in the world, the Gotthard Base Tunnel, from 2016 onwards. The canton develops the business park Werkmatt Uri in a coordinated way, so that a sustainable economic use in the region's general interest results. 120'000 m² of business and industrial land in Werkmatt Uri are developed step-by step and made available to business. The government is convinced their preparatory work makes sense, since there is the potential for over 1000 jobs in Werkmatt Uri. In the next few years, further plots should be gradually sold and built upon. Let us together use the present possibilities for an extremely promising future.
