Metrovalencia line 5

Inside the prolongation study of the Metrovalencia line 5, it is also projected the integration of the same one into the urban area of Riba-roja de Túria. The current urban configuration is characterized by the existence of the former railway platform with an effect of urban barriers.
 

Surface

The area on which the landscape implantation is realized has a surface of 20.500 m2.  
 

Three sections are distinguished in the project:

• Street Senyera (industrial section): it is projected the regularization of alignments and the incorporation of vegetation close to the trench section in the railway platform 
• Street Senyera (residential section): the difference of level between both frontages, force to project two separated platforms (each of them formed by sidewalk, band of vegetation and road way) and a central part that assumes the elevation difference. It incorporates the parking zone, and it makes possible the pedestrian communication between both levels by a system of ramps and stairs, 
• Riba-roja centre station : it is the area with major complexity due to the differences and the quantity of urban pieces. _The solution is obtained by a system of stairs, steps, viewing-points, etc, that integrates the road surrounding , the human communication, the future station, the hydraulic ravine needs, etc .
