The Toledo Station from Napoli has been awarded with the ITA TUNNELLING AWARDS 2015
The Tunnelling Awards, that the station has received in the category of “Innovative use of the underground space”, aims to identify outstanding achievements in the field of tunnelling and underground space use and provide international recognition to these remarkable contributions.
The jury said: “The Toledo Station is a unique example of a decentralised museum, offering dynamic fruition of the artists’ creations, as the citizens have the possibility to travel an open artistic itinerary. Building the station has involved the re-systemisation of the surrounding urban context. In fact, the underground works include a long pedestrian passageway starting from the service tunnel, and linking the pedestrian platforms to the secondary exit in Piazzetta Montecalvario, a square that has been regenerated and re-qualified with positive effects for the surrounding Spanish Quarters (built in the sixteenth century under the Spanish Viceroy). In addition to the underground works, part of the Via Diaz above the main shaft, has now become a broad pedestrian square. Trees were planted in the narrow area whilst along the southern perimeter, parasols have been arranged to protect the street stalls that were formerly scattered over the pavement in Vesuvian basalt, lending grace and comfort to the area.
