The redevelopment of Salzereda Avenue aims to improve the town’s physical and visual relationship with the river. With improved accessibility and the removal of the previous development’s architectural barriers, the new esplanade opens up towards the Besòs River and turns a road infrastructure into a metropolitan civic corridor on the river. The city’s strategy for more sustainable mobility is simultaneously enhanced.
