TYDING UP BUSES

TYDING UP COACHES

The proximity to the Sagrada Família is overwhelming at this j corner. Thousands of tourists who visit the temple every day move around this area following their guides. Their coaches remain parked there, thus generating annoying barriers.
La Hispanitat and Pablo Neruda squares can contribute to improve this situation. A new bus station is located at the lower level of the biggest garden, bringing down itself to the level of the basement of some existing buildings around (see, for example, the garage at Aragó-Lepant corner).
This action would allow to intensify the activity and use of this space, multiplying its levels and improving its dialogue with the street.

BIRD’S EYE POSTCARDS

BIRD’S EYE POSTCARDS

The increasing admiration of Antoni Gaudí has highlighted the Park Güell as an undeniable touristic attraction. Visitors get there using touristic buses and wanderingy steep streets. Could webalance the high pressure on this space by leading touriststo thewider area of the Tres Turons Park?

A cable car could allow visitors going up from Park Güell to the top of Turó del Carmel (+265), a viewpoint which still remains surrounded by   nature.  The next stop could be El Coll (+190) in order to let tourist step in this neighbourhood. From that point, the cable car could climb up to reach the impressive landscape of the historic bunkers at the top of Turó de la Rovira (+260). That would be a great highlight before arriving to Guinardó Park (+120), a place well connected to the public transport by means of a new urban platform.
