Objective

To recover, reuse, re-functionalize already built areas; protect and enhance open spaces from the agricultural, environmental, landscape and tourist point of view.

Description

The redevelopment of the urban settlement structure takes place through microclimatic improvement and reduction of “heat islands”; reduction of vehicular flows; reduction of water and energy consumption; improvement of water quality not subjected to purification; increase of the tree heritage in urban areas and rural urban areas; mitigation of the impacts on the main infrastructures with green barriers.

Expected results

Limit the consumption of the territory by favouring the reorganization/requalification of the existing settlement structure.
