Mejorando la experiencia de ciudad entre el parque zonal Clarelandia y el parque Metropolitano Timiza: una propuesta de diseño urbano sobre la ronda del río Tunjuelito para resignificar el espacio público

Abstract

Urban empty public spaces, also called residual or socio-fugos spaces, generated by some factors such as the processes of illegal urbanization and the processes of modernization of the city, have become places underutilized by the population and even by the state, being unknown and Leading to environmental pollution, representing danger, violence and insecurity. It has been identified that these spaces have not only been the product of illegal constructions, without planning, but also of planned spaces that are forgotten and turned into places without function, generators of problems for the city. In Bogotá, and specifically on the southwestern side of the Tunjuelito River in Kennedy, between the Clarelandia zonal Park and the Timiza Metropolitan Park, we identify a public space that is socio-fugos, whose deficiencies from a spatial point of view, Social and environmental, lie in being a critical point of garbage, lacking in lighting, dismantling the urban fabric, with 560 at risk of flooding, becoming, in turn, an unsafe area. However, we identified that this public space sociófugo allows to generate connections that would improve the conditions of the place, from the round of the Tunjuelito river. In this way, the urban design for this intervention proposes a longitudinal and transversal connection on the round of the Tunjuelito river, between the Clarelandia Zonal Park and the Timiza Metropolitan Park, through six strategic points of intervention, along its route, Connected by the construction of cyclists, pedestrian bridges, vehicular bridges, parks and commercial and residential areas. This connection will transform this initial public space in a vibrant socio-peto space that means and improves the spatial, social and environmental conditions of this particular area.
