Abstract

Historically, industries were in harbour areas of cities for easy access to transportation of resources. Today, transforming
former industrial areas into living spaces has become an attractive business. However, this transformation has often been
challenged by high levels of soil contamination caused by the industrial use. Remediation measures are mandatory to ensure
the public safety in the redeveloped areas. Detailed information about the contaminant type, distribution, and transport mechanisms
is required to address the contamination issues. This paper suggests a workflow for investigations assisting decision
making for construction work in redeveloped industrial areas. The workflow is applied to Horsens harbour (Denmark). In this
area, renovation of the harbour walls introduces the risk of spreading of contamination to planned construction areas. The
study demonstrates how detailed hydrogeological information about the site allows for scenario modelling of contaminant
transport, guiding remediation efforts and aiding decision makers in developing the harbour area.
