MARKET AREA ENTRANCE

The wide road between the fenced marked and the school is formalized with double asphalt roads and an organized, yet little useful mid space.

The road towards the maket is only for delivery and some parking.

By bringing back the informal street logic of shared space, the space will be a flexible, wide space where the market can reach the street life, where informal usage and water related activities can happen. Bring back spaces for informal usage in the formalized area

SHADE STREET SECTION

More filtering minerals and biotope to treat the polluted surface water from the road.

The vegetation creates a visual division between the heavier road and the mixed street space.

Re-introducing informal qualities like shared street space, access to gray water in the street, a continous shadow and street elements for informal activities
