Issues of Metropolitan Passages

The needs of connections and passages are a major challenge for the municipalities of the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona, in order to cross rivers, connect disctricts separated by a variety of infrastrctures which appear as real frontiers (i.e. the railway along that prevent the access to the sea, metropolitan parks, highway interchanges absorbed by urbanization, interconnections between neighborhoods …).
