Bus Terminal Žabica
STATUS
Concept
SIZE
500,000 sqft - 1,000,000 sqft
The project for the new bus terminal and a garage for 900 cars in Rijeka is one of the first steps in the "conquest" of the Rijeka port area, which is slowly begining to open up the city. The site is located in a part of the port of Rijeka which has always been closed to the public, between the railway stations, freight terminals and the passenger ferry. One of the determining design factors is the difference in scale between the port warehouses on one side and the city blocks on the other.
The new terminal building with 300 meters in lenght reminiscents the massive warehouses, while the urban blocks determine the height dimensions and the zoning of the house - blocks with atriums. The area of the new terminal is surrounded by all kinds of transport - rail, cargo, port, road and pedestrian, so the new building infrastructure has become an urban strategy, a lot more than just architecture. The shoping area, the bus terminal with 18 platforms, bus depot for 14 buses and a public garage for 900 cars are located inside the terminal building, commercial and public facilities on the upper floors and a multi-purpose hall in the restored part of the existing warehouse.
Pedestrian access points are provided from Krešimirova street, newly designed Žabica square and the prolonged Riva street, and they are all connected at the street level of the building, from which they move on higher levels. An accessible and quality pedestrian island of the bus terminal was created through the design proces, with acess to all of the platforms and no overlaping with the vehicular traffic. The construction and the facade are made of steel and a kind of a tribute to port cranes and constructions. They also allow a greater construction span and a better design of spaces.
