Adaptación de los desarrollos urbanos sobre los humedales de la cuenca baja de los ríos fucha y Tunjuelito

Abstract

In recent decades the cities have had great urban growth which has affected, altered and polluted water bodies in the ecosystem. In the case of Bogota 95% of these have been affected and contaminated. The lower basin of the rivers Tunjuelito and Fucha is located in the southwest of Bogota, administratively is part of the town of Kennedy 7.7 Km harboring between rivers; contains wetlands La Vaca (north and south), El Burro, El Burrito (not recognized) and Techo. Within this area we have developed formal and informal around the different water bodies affecting the ecological structure of these developments. Because of this wetland are degraded and threatened by different spills from small and Corabastos industries; Likewise, the locals use these spaces as garbage dumps, parking lots and construction sites. Starting from this scenario arises urban landscape develop a project to integrate urban development with the ecological structure of wetlands through the management of urban edges. also it aims to re-naturalize as many urbanized areas and develop enabling equipment for social development.
