17. Physical connection Sustainable mobility
Accessibility improvement
Territorial Context
‒ Proximity between the
municipalities
‒ Extraurban historical roads that
penetrate the town centre
‒ Lack of direct transport link among
them both by road and by railways
‒ Direct access to roads
connecting them to the city of Bari
‒ Possibility to use services located in
the city of Bari

18. Physical connection Sustainable mobility
Accessibility improvement
Territorial Context
‒ Presence of many secondary and
rural roads
‒ Presence of numerous
environmental, historical and
architectural heritage
‒ Mostly flat Land
‒ Possibility to create networks of
“soft mobility” able to connect and
integrate these urban areas,
settlements and the rural heritage

19. Physical connection Sustainable mobility
Accessibility improvement
Urban Context
‒ Presence of roads that penetrate
the city in a radial way up to town
centres
‒ Stone made town centre viability
and characterized by narrow road
sections and often non-vehicular
‒ Difficult accessibily and lack of
parking areas
‒ Total lack of bike and pedestrian
paths
‒ Creating networks able to relate
the historical centers with urban
and territorial context

20. Enhancing social networks
‒ Lack of local and territorial services
‒ Lack of associations and active
citizenship
‒ Strong dependence on the city of Bari
‒ Presence of local important polarities
(research institute “IAM Istituto
Agronomico Mediterraneo”, university
seat)

21. Enhancing social networks
‒ Features of historical memory
‒ Potential sites for cultural exchange

22. Enhancing social networks
‒ Features of historical memory
‒ Identity places in a state of neglect

23. Enhancing social networks
‒ Features of historical memory
‒ Identity places in a state of neglect
‒ Lack of social cohesion and
citizen participation
‒ Open spaces for social relationship
‒ Potential sites for cultural exchange

24. Enhancing social networks
‒ Public buidings in the town
centers
‒ Social initiatives and youth policies
‒ Average age of population who live
in the historical towns
‒ Potential social mixity

25. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Territorial Context
‒ System of not very deep erosive
furrows, typical of the Apulian
landscape and their environmental
and landscape value
‒ Homogeneous land features both
in environmental characteristics
and agricultural production, closely
associated with urban systems

26. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Territorial Context
‒ Territory mainly destined to olive
groves and vineyards
‒ Returning to the specific features
of rural context

27. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Territorial Context
‒ Existence of a rural residential
fabric to reuse
‒ Rural historical heritage
‒ Network junctions on the soft
mobility system

28. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Urban Context
‒ Sites and building of high historical
value and with whom the
population is identified
‒ Physical degradation

29. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Urban Context
‒ Sites and building of high historical
value and with whom the population ‒ Strong separation between
is identified several urban areas
‒ Physical degradation
-Foto ognissanti

30. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Urban Context
‒ High rate of
abandoned built
heritage
‒ Buildings no longer
able to meet the needs
of the population

31. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Urban Context
‒ Fusion of public and private spaces

32. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
Urban Context
- A lot of empty spaces in the urban
texture which can be qualified as new - Mixed uses of public spaces
urban centres

33. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
- Intensive use of open spaces for
religious and traditional events
- Implementation and promotions of
socio-cultural public events and
creation of religious, cultural and
gastronomic pathways
- Uses of public spaces in the daily life
- Green way networks among public
spaces

34. Improving quality of urban and territorial context
Reuse and / or reutilization
Redefinition of roles and / or identities
- Perception of public spaces by inhabitants - Feeling of security into public spaces
