Our proposal, a project to give new life to an abandoned segment of the highway, was focused on the creation of a lane not used as bypass for Vado, equipped with sports facilities for those who in recent years had already been spontaneously using this area, extending and closing it as a ring. The project profits from what already exists, with a linearity and affordability that make it feasible. We thought of a promenade with custom speed for each type of user: from the hare to the tortoise ... everyone has their own pace! The portal points out the presence of access to the planned path. It is an “invitation”, with a shrinkage followed by an opening element inredcolor. Eventhebenchesinparkingareashavethesame profile and color, which all characterize the entire project. The same material and formal concept is designed for the totem, a book-shaped structure that marks the kilometers covered, and for the street lights.
