Abstract

Any locality, especially a county seat municipality, needs a representative area, the so-called Centre that the tourists and the foreigners would want to visit, the locals to enjoy it and take pride of. Amongst the most important landmarks of the residents of the Municipality of Alexandria are the green areas, which is why the project conceived by the Municipality supports the importance of developing the network of urban spaces in the city. The city has a regular street formation and a system of distribution that appears most often in colonies cities. Therefore, the Danube street withits green area for recreation which cuts the monotony situated exactly in the centre of the city, is the green heart of the city. General objectives of the project: Improving the accessibility of both locals and tourists in the city centre of Municipality of Alexandria with the help of the underground road passages. Reconfiguring the subterranean spaces related to the central area of the municipality, thus improving the quality of the public space. Reducind traffic congestion to the surface in the central area and supporting both locals and visitors by providing parking in this area. This is achievable, by using an underground parking for the underground passage, proposed by the project, thus clearing up a significant number of square meters of the above- ground space, usually occupied by vehicles. The project Reconfiguration of the road and the pedestrian traffic in the central area of the Municipality of Alexandria– Road Passageway is part of the general context of sustainable development, economic and social, in the regional, county and local policies and programs. It is relevant from the point of view of community strategies aimed at optimizing local development factors- environmental actors on the one hand and tourism infrastructure on the other.
