BAGURSA, Barcelona’s municipal urban management company, has awarded RUBAU the development contract under the special infrastructures plan for the La Marina district of the Zona Franca, in Barcelona.
The works, with a budget of over 4 million euros, include the development of Calle Ascó (between Calle Arnés and Calle Motors), Calle Ciscó (between Calle de l’Acer and Calle Ascó), Calle Motors (between Calle de la Metal.lurgia and Calle Ascó) and works outside the development area at the corner of Calle Motors and Paseo de la Zona Franca. The aim is to link developed areas in Calle Motors and Calle Ulldecona and provide service links to the district’s future Parque Central.
The current developed area will be extended with new services: street lighting, sewers, water, sprinklers, gas and telecommunications. Noteworthy is a sustainable drainage system in which rainwater from pavements and roofs is conveyed to flower beds where it is stored and filtered into the ground. The project also includes civil works for a central hot and cold water system, which will provide the district with the latest smart city technology.
The works awarded to RUBAU are part of an urban renewal project that is being carried out in La Marina del Prat Vermell, one of the districts with the greatest potential in Barcelona.
