La rigenerazione urbana e ambientale di un territorio costiero deve leggere il paesaggio litoraneo come un elemento cardine per lo sviluppo dell’intera fascia costiera. Da ciò consegue il forte accento sulla componente paesaggistica posto dal progetto di riqualificazione della fascia costiera del comune di Senigallia, che permette di leggere in maniera unitaria il complesso sistema naturale e antropico del litorale, assunto a nuova “infrastruttura” cittadina, su cui imperniare processi di riqualificazione dell’intero territorio. Senigallia deve la sua fama alla presenza della spiaggia, che rappresenta il fulcro dell’attrattiva turistica e il luogo d’incontro per eccellenza delle attività estive, nonostante la sua estensione limitata, la sua frammentazione ed il diffuso degrado urbano. Il turismo rappresenta anche un generatore di forti pressioni, soprattutto su quelle porzioni di litorale ancora scarsamente antropizzate che hanno visto la progressiva riduzione di elementi distintivi del paesaggio. Pertanto, la valorizzazione degli ambiti naturalistici ed il miglioramento della qualità urbana vengono assunti a obiettivi fondanti il progetto di riqualificazione del sistema litoraneo di Senigallia. Essa si basa sul potenziamento dell’infrastruttura verde lungo il litorale che ha lo scopo di migliorare la qualità dell’ambiente urbano e naturale grazie al potenziamento di reti continue di percorsi in grado di ricucire luoghi prettamente naturalistici fra loro e con il tessuto urbano.

Abstract
Urban regeneration of a coastal territory should consider the local coastal landscape as a key element for boosting local sustainable growth. Starting from this assumption the regeneration proposal for the coastal belt of Senigallia (Italy) puts a strong emphasis on landscape, which allows to understand the complexity of the coastline’s natural and anthropic system in a holistic way. Senigallia owes its touristic attractiveness to the beach, which is the main touristic reference for local, national and international tourism and the most important meeting place for summer activities and events. At the same time, it shows critical issues such asthe limited extension in relation with the touristic arrivals, paths fragmentation along the coast and episodes of urban decay. Tourism generates high pressures not only on the beach portions with high concentration of resorts and facilities, but also on those parts that are still predominately wild and less anthropized, undermining the distinctive elements of local landscape. In this framework, natural areas valorisation and urban quality improvement are assumed as main objectives of the regeneration of the entire Senigallia’s coastal strip. The proposal is based on strengthening the green infrastructure along the coast, allowing to improve the quality of the natural and the urban environments by giving continuity to the existing paths along the coast and by connecting the urbanized areas with the local natural systemsFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
