School paths of Marianao and Montbaig schools


School paths of Marianao and Montbaig schools

Following in the wake of the “Tactical Guide for Sant Boi de Llobregat School Paths” that we worked on in 2020, the School Path projects for the Montbaig and Mariano schools have been drawn up. The objective is to improve mobility dynamics and the quality of the public space around the schools and at the same time put into practice the methodologies described in the guide, which should serve as a basis for the rest of centers of the municipality.

The projects begin with the analysis of the students’ daily routes, which are obtained through an individualized survey. Next, an audit of the surrounding streets and squares is carried out, paying attention to aspects ranging from accessibility and connectivity, comfort or the capacity of the public space to promote autonomy and the development of boys and girls in safe conditions. All this analysis is accompanied by participatory and pedagogical actions with students, teaching teams and families, with the aim of collecting their perceptions and directly influencing their mobility habits.

With all this, the document ends by defining specific actions that are grouped under three thematic axes: physical actions on public space, pedagogical and participative actions and communicative actions.

Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan of the Mancomunidad de la Valldigna


Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan of the Mancomunidad de la Valldigna

The Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (PMUS) are the instrument that analyzes and plans everything that has to do with the displacements that occur in a territory, both those linked to “obligatory” mobility, often linked to productive tasks, and those that take place and coexist with the rest of the activities that occur on the public space.

In the case of the Valldigna PMUS, the study covers the three municipalities of Benifairó de la Valldigna, Simat and Barx, for this reason, special emphasis has been placed on understanding what role each of the three towns plays in the whole, and what dynamics territorial events take place in that environment.

After the analysis phase, proposals capable of promoting sustainable mobility have been drawn up and planned, both in terms of infrastructure design and management and planning. In addition, special emphasis has been placed on communication and urban pedagogy, understanding that the transition to active and sustainable mobility also requires a change in habits that affects all the agents involved. 

It can also be said that one of the objectives of the Plan has been to understand sustainable mobility as an opportunity to improve the living conditions of the citizens of Valldigna, but also to promote sustainable tourism, capable of revaluing the territory and generating new economic opportunities.
