Prague and its bridges are involved in a context of very
powerful historical heritage. The proximity to the Vlatva river and the
significance of the surroundings, the historical buildings, the prominent
position in the urban context and the iconic character of the old buildings,
constitutes the background that the proposal had to deal with.
Conceptually the proposal explores the relation of the
existing brides with the river banks and the way they connect.
The proposal says that these system of bridges is good
but has problems, the mobility system in most of the bridges are mixed,
pedestrians and cars, or train bridges.
It is proposed a complementary system to the installed reality, a
longitudinal walkway or pedestrian promenade with a bike lane stretching
through the intervention area.
This walkway suggests a new way to look at the city
from the river and is intended to promote a fast reliable and sustainable way
to connect the city.
