Treviso is one of the major cities of north-eastern Italy. With its recognition in agriculture and industry, Treviso is an important cultural city. The goal of the workshop is to propose a proposal regarding the city planning of 2020. Treviso is a city with agricultural recognition marked with its farming, making and selling. Especially the Fiera area is a place with new possibilities based on a variety of issues.
Fiera is an area with variety of resources like canals, universities, cultural and healthcare facilities. However following the movement of the DeLonghi factory, now the area has many big empty facilities. So we tried to show the future of Fiera using keywords such as Agriculture, Agricultural Education, and Renewable Energy into the layers. We desired certain effects to appear on the layer in three main procedures.
Agriculture follows the procedure of harvesting-manufacturing-cooking-selling.
Knowledge follows the flow to the university libraries based on agricultural resources.
Energy follows the procedure of agricultural resources going to the cities after bio-fueling.
Water System
The river in Treviso connected with Venice is a very important resource with rich natural environment. Now the water from the river is only used as agricultural water, however it has the potential to have huge impact on the city environment.
Transportation
Treviso sustains a well maintained transportation system that helps in developing the city’s node. However the insufficient linkage of each type of transportation results in the insufficient linkage of the nodes. The transportation system within the city shows low effectiveness and the accessibility of the city from the outer areas are still limited as only the train system is developed.
New Tram line
The current transporta-tion system shows devel-opment of the nodes, however the linkage of the nodes are very weak. Through the development of the new tramline, we suggest an effective connection of many areas in Treviso to the airport. This will result in the equal distribution of the population influx using the train, bus and the airplane.
Water Activity
We also suggest amplifying the identity of Treviso using water resources of the river in Treviso. With many water activities such as Kayaking, Bicycle roads along the river and camping zones, this will increase the quality of life of the Fiera area in accordance with the development of the new Tramline
