Archaeological Monumental Site (CARME) - Via dei Fori Imperiali area: pedestrianisation and redevelopment of Via dei Fori Imperiali
Implementing party
Project description
The project involves the redevelopment of Via dei Fori Imperiali in order to:
- increase the pedestrianisation of the street;
- make services more usable;
- improve accessibility to archaeological and monumental areas through new street furniture elements.
The objective of the new area of the Imperial Fora is the spatial, functional and monumental integration of the contemporary level with the archaeological level, so that the transformation of the ancient forums into contemporary, non-museumised squares open to city life is possible. The intervention aims to restyle the landscape of Via dei Fori Imperiali and the surrounding areas that will contribute to consolidate a unified and identifiable urban image. As part of the project, the possibility of constructing new slopes to access and enjoy urban itineraries open to the public and public squares in the archaeological portion, where cultural events can also be held, will be evaluated.Specifically, the intervention consists of:
- resurfacing of the section of Via dei Fori Imperiali between the junction with Via Labicana and the Colosseo metro station on line B (resurfacing of the road and pavements with rectification/elimination of the existing traffic island kerbs; redevelopment of the green area between Via Nicola Salvi and Via dei Fori Imperiali);
- reversible fittings on the Via dei Fori Imperiali (furnishing equipment such as shelters and/or canopies, seating furniture, balustrades, bollards, signalling and lighting).
