Abstract(s)
Desde a expansão das cidades, a partir do centro para a periferia, que o automóvel passou a ter uma elevada importância na vida das populações. Desenvolveram-se subúrbios, cada vez mais afastados das áreas históricas, zonas residenciais, sem vida durante o dia e apenas utilizadas como dormitórios. Durante este período, a única preocupação seria a de criar as melhores condições para a circulação automóvel.
Nas últimas décadas começou a notar-se uma necessidade de mudança, indicando que os meios motorizados não podiam ser os únicos valorizados. Para além de se procurar fomentar os transportes coletivos, era também imperativo investir nos modos suaves de locomoção como as ciclovias e a marcha a pé.
O tema principal deste relatório incide na Requalificação Urbana dos lugares que outrora representaram pontos de encontro e que, com o passar do tempo, foram perdendo o seu valor. Grande parte da pesquisa recai sobre a melhoria da acessibilidade e da mobilidade, uma vez que são aspetos fundamentais em qualquer espaço que se pretenda intervencionar. Como tal, foram estudadas soluções para o aperfeiçoamento de espaços de circulação pedonal, ciclável e conjugação com os espaços de circulação automóvel.
O objetivo deste documento é apresentar o trabalho realizado ao longo dos quatro meses de estágio na empresa SENER-ENGIVIA e pretende expor os cuidados e condicionantes a considerar na criação de espaços acessíveis a todos. O caso de estudo desenvolvido consiste no projeto de requalificação e arranjos exteriores do “Largo da Igreja de Benfica” (em Lisboa), um local de elevada importância para a cidade, mas que estava desatualizado e com necessidade de ser adaptado aos seus utilizadores. A colaboração neste projeto durante o período de estágio envolveu as mais variadas vertentes, nomeadamente o traçado, a drenagem e os pavimentos, entre outras especialidades. Tentou-se eliminar barreiras e desníveis, tornar o pavimento num espaço contínuo e de fácil locomoção, assim como criar formas de coexistência entre veículos motorizados e modos suaves.
Este tipo de intervenção pretende reduzir o impacto da presença de meios motorizados nas ruas das cidades, apostando na reorganização do espaço urbano e na criação de ambientes seguros para os peões.
Since the expansion of cities and their development, from city centers to the periphery, that the automobile had a high importance in the population. Suburbs were developed, each time further from historic areas, creating residential zones, lifeless during the day and only uses as dormitories. During these periods of time, the only concern was to create the best conditions for motor traffic In the past few decades, it became to be noted the need for change, indicating that the motorized means of transportation shouldn’t be the only ones with value. In addition to motivate the public transportation, it was also imperative to invest in soft modes, such as the bicycle and walking on foot. The main subject of this report is the Urban Renewal, of places that once represented meeting points and over the time are losing their value. Much of this research lies on improving the accessibility and mobility, as they are fundamental aspects in any space to be intervened. As such, solutions were studied to improve the spaces for pedestrian circulation, cycling and combine them with motor traffic spaces. The purpose of this document is to demonstrate all the work developed over the four-month internship in SENER-ENGIVIA and intends to expose the main conditions to consider in creating spaces accessible to all. The study case of this work consists of the renewal and landscaping of the “Largo da Igreja de Benfica” (in Lisbon), a place of high importance for the city, but which is outdated and with the need to be adapted to its users. The collaboration on this project during the internship period involved various aspects such as the layout of the road, drainage system and pavements, among others specialties. It was a goal to eliminate physical barriers, gaps and steps, creating a plan surface as a continuous space, with a friendly environment to the pedestrian and creating a coexistence area between motor vehicles and soft modes. These types of interventions aim to reduce the impact of the presence of automobiles on the city streets, focusing on the reorganization of the urban space and creating a safety environment for pedestrians.
