BO-HÍOS DEL RÍO. Resignificación y reapropiación urbanística de la ronda ambiental del Río Bogotá en la Localidad de Fontibón.

Abstract

The informal occupation and ignorance of the Río Bogotá as an environmental, formal and functional structure of the city on the urban edge of the Fontibón Town is a reason for the low quality of urban life in the population. Added to this, the current restrictive regulatory parameters are not matched with the current dynamics of the river, causing the deterioration of the immediate urban structure and the degradation of the environmental system around its main basin and sub-basins, concluding in desolate, contaminated spaces and an insecure edge. This project implements planning strategies, urban and landscape design along the Río Bogotá ring road and its urban and rural area of influence, redefining this urban corridor as a structuring axis of urban and environmental development, collective habitat and local identity, in a way that, through urban design and planning, a water-sensitive urban intervention model is consolidated, which highlights this important structure of the capital and directs sustainable development. A methodology is established from the diagnosis of the classic territory that analyzes the phenomena that affect the territory in the scales and structures of the city, complemented with the diagnosis from the landscape units, giving guidelines for intervention in the public space as a catalyst axis of urban and social dynamics for the transformation of the territory.
