The project creates a new green link for bicycles and pedestrians connecting two important urban centres, Place Flagey and Place Jourdan, neighbourhoods of very different topographical levels.
The project investigates the new possibilities and mixed-uses for cyclists and pedestrians along the railways in cities, and creates a greener and safer alternative to the busy Couronne Avenue. There is a homogeneous use of corten steel all along the route.
This project has been longlisted in the landscape project category of Dezeen Awards 2021.
