The space will offer new habitats, especially for birds, and will recover a space for the use and enjoyment of citizens, especially nearby vulnerable groups. On the other hand, action is being taken on different plots that currently have peri-urban voids with a high potential for renaturation, creating new biodiverse and resilient green spaces.
- Creation of a new floodable park for rainwater management next to the A-44.
- Conditioning and renaturation of vacant plots in the western area.
- Reforestation of degraded areas in the northern zone.
