The main aim of the project is to serve as a catalyst for leisure, culture, sports and educational activities around the Ter River in Manlleu. The design can be explained through three approaches. First, based on the territorial perspective aimed at enhancing the riverbed as a space of interest in landscape terms; second, from the standpoint of urban strategy, to consolidate the green leisure/cultural axis alongside the river; and finally, based on the technical solution adopted, a very targeted action with a low environmental impact.
