The powerful conditions of mobility and territorial relation that have generated the new infrastructures of the transport, have provoked processes of urban transformations and new centralities of territorial scope that force to propose a new re-reading of the new spaces of the city, not only from its scale Urban but also territorial.
Especialmente en Córdoba se evidencian las siguientes necesidades: por un lado su papel articulador entre el centro peninsular, con su importante centralidad territorial en el potente eje productivo Sevilla- Madrid, así como su situación estratégica con la región de Andalucía y el Mediterráneo; y por otro la coexistencia de dos modelos urbanos de ciudad compacta y periférica fruto de su dinámica urbana.
The Plan seeks to discover the “new centralities” by defining territorial scale proposals such as the “logistical axis” (with its Transport Center, Exhibition Centers or Business Parks), as well as the “green systems” (Parque Periurbano, Parque Linear or Archaeological Axis) the strong commitment to “nucleize” the whole of their “districts”; And the proposals of urban scale with the residential extensions by West, the “garden city” by levante, and the interventions in the borders of the Historical City.
