Renaturalization of the surroundings of Vistalegre and the Calzas Anchas stream (Vistalegre).
PRTR Call for Proposals Project
The general objective of Vistalegre is the natural recovery of an approximate area of several tens of thousands of square meters of degraded land located in the southeastern area of the city, in order to generate a green and blue corridor that transcends administrative boundaries and generates a reversal of the current territorial, ecosystemic and landscape paradigm in the entire area. In addition, it is an action that seeks to integrate the urban environment and its immediate space into the same matrix through the restitution and transformation of the interstitial spaces of the city, facilitating access to the natural environment, contributing to a better functioning of the urban ecosystem, improving the quality of life of people and the resilience of Utrera in the face of the effects of climate change.

The actions are focused on the natural recovery of an area of several hectares of degraded land located in the southeast area of the city, as well as the renaturalization of the Calzas Anchas stream bed that runs through this land, seeking to provide a pilot and demonstrative solution based on the safe, sustainable, efficient and coherent removal of gray infrastructure and the consequent contribution of an integral and transversal response for the ecological and landscape recovery of the environment. This is an ideal peri-urban area to develop a large green area of high environmental value, developing a strategy that avoids including anthropic and artificial elements in order to prioritize the inclusion of biodiversity dynamics and ecosystem services.
