Lecce. A skatepark, paths surrounded by greenery and sports areas in via Gino Rizzo.
On Thursday the municipal council approved the project for the construction of a new neighborhood park within the residential complexes behind viale Grassi between via Gino Rizzo and via San Cesario: green spaces, places to rest, a skate park, equipped with bowls, minis, stairs, ramps of different slopes and rails, which can be used with skateboards, roller skates and even BMX, as well as a jogging path, a basketball/volleyball area and tree-lined parking lots. And also: a system of paths in light-coloured solid earth, with universal accessibility, which define the distribution in the park of the different parts dedicated to sport and well-being and greenery, with the creation of hills and slight differences in level of the ground to offer a differentiated multiplicity of areas and enhance the urban landscape.
The project, designed by the engineer Daniele Serio with the agronomic consultancy of Rodolfo Rossi, will be carried out on an area of 15.150 mXNUMX, creating equipped public open spaces between via Gino Rizzo and the residential buildings, for a total cost of realization amounting to 706.685,52 euros. It will be carried out taking into account the urbanization works foreseen within the project proposal for a multifunctional building of Climart SRL, which will be built in via Gino Rizzo at the corner of via Daniele Paladini, on an area of private property and adjacent to the park area of municipal property in section 35.
In the green areas, a mix of deciduous and permanent leaf plants will be planted which aims to achieve a synthesis between development and growth among small, medium and tall trees, need for maintenance, beauty of flowering and resistance to harmful biotic agents and abiotic. Between tall trees among others, Robinia, Lime, Jacaranda, Phytolacca are expected. Among street lamps of different heights that will illuminate the entire park equipped with benches with seats and backs and waste bins.
«With this project we can finally realize a prediction from a long time ago, foreseen with the PRG in sector 35, where today there are many new residents and young couples, near the Parco delle Cave and Masseria Tagliatelle - declares the councilor for urban planning policies Rita Miglietta – It will be a vital space to strengthen the neighborhood community, which also responds to the demand for closer spaces and services for a part of the city still in the process of consolidation. We are also happy with the virtuous collaboration with the private proponent who accepted the administration's proposal to create a skate park in the area of which the city is still lacking. This is a proposal that looks to the future of public spaces with the aim of always increasing more spaces with multiple and intergenerational vocations spread across all neighborhoods».
