Extraordinary maintenance of Piazza Bartolomeo Romano roads and pavements
Implementing party
Roma Capitale – VIII Municipality
Project description
The intervention concerned the extraordinary maintenance of Piazza Bartolomeo Romano roads and pavements. The square, which is one of the main hubs of the district, is located in the heart of Garbatella old town centre. It has been redeveloped from an environmental and functional point of view. A roundabout has been built to manage the complex intersection where five road axes converge, and the road pavement has been redone in order to increase the safety of citizens. The construction of the new roundabout has not affected the original road plans and has been designed to avoid interference with the existing pedestrian paths, which provide access to local homes and businesses. In the renovation of the pavements, the existing conditions were taken into account, with particular attention paid to the area in front of the Palladium Theatre, where the same materials were used to maintain the stylistic continuity of the square. The new central island has been built with grey and white concrete blocks, which have also been employed to enclose the shrub-like flowerbeds with lavender and wall germander plants. The outer edge is made of travertine, while in the centre of the roundabout a strawberry tree has been planted.
