Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, sector de Llevant - 7a Biennal 2012

Andreu Arriola-Madorell, Carme Fiol-Costa

This is a project to improve the conditions of Gran Via/A-19 highway.
It proposes a new section: a projection of the service roads to form 3.5 meter over the central carriageway. This solution reduces noise and atmospheric pollution.
Sound screens situated along the edge of the side projections protect the housing along Gran Via from the noise produced by traffic on the central carriageway.
The walkways situated at the end of all perpendicular streets reinforce connection between the two sides.
Traffic is organized in different levels: a central trunk that channels fast traffic, service roads on the overhangs and three-meter wide pavement and a bicycle lane along building façades. Linear parks solve the difference in level between the buildings and roads on either side. The resulting 20% gradients are divided into level squares and sloping green spaces allowing a grid plantation of Poplars. The furniture is specially designed and contribute to the uniqueness of the landscape.
