Nowadays, the presence of the railway platform in surface generates a strong barrier effect in the urban area of Burjas- sot and Godella

The new urbanization regenerates the liberation of new spaces by the entombment of the infrastructure: a powerful pedestrian axis substitutes the railway axis, establishing the predominance of pedestrians and cyclists. Also new urban connections are established and the existing ones are reordered.

The project interacts with the character and the characteristics of each one of the zones crossed: link with the existing roads, adequacy with the fords, fluency of the pedestrian traffic, etc.

The landscape integration in the urban section includes a surface of 51.504 m2.

In the section of the new underground tracing railway line, is projected the reconstruction of the current structure , sup- porting the existing traffics and the number of rails, but with light modifications that allow to improve the railroad charac- teristics - rectification of alignments, increase the pedestrian surface, incorporation of vegetation, etc.

For the railway current platform, is projected to restructure it into a green urban route for pedestrians and cyclists: stands out the construction of a wide boulevard in the Bétera street.

In the Burjassot-Godella's station area, as well as in the of Godella's current and future station, there is projected a sin- gular and differentiated treatment depending on the urban context in which they are.
