Zona urbana "in-between" a sud di Anversa: il percorso verso la sostenibilità

  • Marc Mohelig University Federico II of Naples

Abstract

In-between urban zone South of Antwerp is located in a dispersed urban city environment called the “Flemish Rhombus”. It is a problematic zone dominated by traffic. It hosts a large number of large scale retail shops and several industrial parks bordering on residential areas. Township centers lack attractiveness, in particular the city center of Boom. Regional and local spatial plans have several strenghts but are not sufficiently dynamic and proactive to solve all the issues. In order to promote a sustainable future for the zone, there is a need for a positive comprehensive image encompassing the objective and subjective characteristics the zone should have. This image should be marketed to the relevant stakeholders and should be the basis for action. It would be beneficial for the entire dispersed city and for the in-between zone in particular if the government took appropriate measures to discourage motorised traffic and to encourage the development of the local economy.
