Liberty Avenue will be open to pedestrian traffic at noon tomorrow.
In addition to surface parking, sidewalks will be free, to be surrounded by a fence of a meter in height to prevent people tripping, as the roof of the parking ground of Liberty, is 40 centimeters below the level the sidewalk.
So that citizens can access from the sidewalks safely to the surface of Liberty Avenue five crosswalks will be installed along the 300 meters in length of the avenue.
Liberty Avenue will be completely transparent with the exception of the entrances to parking (ramps and stairs) that have fences around two meters high to avoid accidents.
The parking area will be open to pedestrian traffic three days before the commitment of the council, which provided the opening from November 15.
This situation will remain until the week of 15 to 20 January, when it will close to pedestrians to carry out works on the surface of the avenue.
During these two months will continue the work inside the park.
The City Council has proposed two projects for citizens to have a say on the final configuration of Avenida de la Libertad.
The two projects are expected to restrict traffic and enable 8,100 meters square for pedestrians.
Expect projects of 3,280 square meters that was before the pedestrian avenue is passed to 8,100 square feet.
Regarding the parking space of the 1330 square meters of surface parking goes underground 10,530 (831 seats) and 4,425 meters square of traffic goes down to 700 square meters.
The two projects carried out by architects Manuel Clavel Rojo and Luis Clavel Sainz, retain the same structure, with curved-path to remove the linearity of the city, where the only difference lies in the treatment of spaces for pedestrian use, the parks and pavements.
The projects will be exhibited at the ground floor of City Hall Annex building, until the 10th of December so that citizens can choose the option that they like and present their suggestions.
In addition, residents can view the projects from their computer as they are posted on the website of the City.
Once the exposure time will have one month to consider all opinions and suggestions and decide if the avenue was opened to traffic, as before, either do one of these two projects restricted traffic.
Surface works will begin the week of 15 to 20 January 2010.
