Every building application published in Switzerland in Q3 2026, broken down into residential new-build projects, planned apartments and municipalities. Source: cantonal gazettes and municipal publications, collected daily.
The current quarter is not complete yet; the figures grow until it ends.
The sources were connected step by step through 2026; until the end of 2026 the series also reflects the growing coverage, not only building activity.
