The city of Valencia (Spain) has had a significant development in the last decade. The harbour of the city has acquired high relevance as a commercial and sport harbour related to the celebration of the 32nd America’s Cup in 2007. In August 2008 a new event will be held in the city: the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Europe, that will be raced in a new urban race course in the harbour area linked to an extension of the city. The icon of the urban race course is a swing bridge that will connect the East and West transversal docks over the entrance to the Interior harbour. The horizontal swing movement of the bridge is due to urban and architectonic requirements. The bridge nvironment, the presence of the Foredeck building by David Chipperfield and the rest of the America’s Cup facilities, invalidates the use of a bascule solution. Originally, a bascule railway and road bridge was built in the area of the harbour, but due to several urban planning decisions ended out of use. The old bridge had therefore to be reallocated and adapted to new functions. The design of the new bridge, finished on July 2007, makes use of the original bridge: 95% of the steel structure and 50% of operating machinery that enable the movement of the bridge, as well as the span locks that blocks the bridge for its normal use. The new bridge spans 99,2 m and has a platform 18 m wide for roadway use: traffic of harbour and Formula 1 race course.

< AWARDS > - First Prize, Design of the Nou Pont the Fusta Competition in Valencia. 2010

The new infrastructure functional solves traffic problems in the city of Valencia and, above all, restores a historic pedestrian walkway. The proposal consists of a bridge with two separate platform, the first downstream with two lanes, one for traffic and one for public transport; the second board upstream is for pedestrian walkway use, which provides a gateway, provided a viewpoint that allows us to contemplate the “Torres de Serranos”, emblematic gates for Valencia Monument . For both boards of the bridge, 155 m. in length, has raised a slender structure appearance with section “in fish belly”, with variable depth transversely. Explains José María Tomás Llavador that has sought ways reminiscent of tree trunks for better integration into the plant environment in which further work has been done for improvement. The piles are made of reinforced concrete. The Bridge means the recovery of the memory of the city and the restoration of a historic pedestrian bridge connecting two neighborhoods. It adds the positive effect it will have on the urban environment. A row of palm trees, located between the two boards of the bridge, are the most characteristic plant project notes. Also under renovation landscaping this stretch of river Turia and existing sports equipment, where two of the four football fields that exist in the present, and two new costumes will remain eight will be completed modules each one.

The goal of the Masterplan is to arrange the site in order to integrate the extension of the fair complex, incorporating new services, organizing the public spaces and improving the access infrastructure to mitigate the influence of seasonal traffic on Feria Valencia and the problems generated by the connection of Avenida de las Ferias between the CV-31 and the Ademuz freeway on the borough of BenimĂ met. Green areas and services along the boundary with nearby residential areas are also contemplated. A connection axis with the access motorway is created, using the new underpass as a traffic interchange and the bridges and footbridges over the CV-31 motorway to connect the circulation with the fair complex. This also allows converting the large green plaza into a pedestrian space. The underpass (tunnel) serves to distribute without interference, access to parking at the fair, public transport and traffic car. The axis finalizes with two 80m long bridges, each divided into two continuous 40m spans.Faced with the problems generated from vehicular traffic, the project offers structured circulation and a rational parking system. Relative to the nearby residential area, the design achieves a great increase in open spaces, gardens and future sporting facilities.

The proposal solves the traffic access problem which comes with the creation of new shopping and leisure spaces. In addition, the Francisco Tomás y Valiente Street, which is used by residents and the customer of the new commercial and leisure area, is cleared. The proposed solution for the improvement of accesses goes through a series of actions on the infrastructure. The area of study is located northeast of the town of Paterna, bounded by the CV-35 and Tomás y Valiente Street, the former road to Llíria. The main limits are: - North: Developments Cruz de Gracia and Campolivar - South: Rustic character area of the municipality of Paterna and road CV-3105 - East: Sueca Street and the development Mas del Rosari - West: Mediterranean Highway (A-7) and the Technological Park
