Text description provided by the architects. The project redefines the public space affected by the redevelopment of the road axis of "via Cademario"; a road link that crosses the historic center of Bioggio connecting the important road of the Strada Regina (Lugano - Ponte Tresa connection) with the above Malcantone municipalities. The intervention consists of a series of public space reconnection/redevelopment projects and was carried out in synergy with the renewal of the cantonal road that crosses the nucleus for a total length of 185 m. The project includes the entirety of the spaces intended for pedestrian circulation. It starts downstream with the "gateway" of the municipality (area with fountain and green spaces), continues with the reconnection with the "Piazza degli orti", public transport stops, and ends upstream with the entrance to the Town Hall building. The pedestrian paths were paved with natural stone of different types (1'100 m2), new green areas were created (128 m2), and a fountain with a waterfall was built (31 m2).
