The effects of urban growth result in different challenges and issues, especially in the peripheral districts of cities that are far from the central urban services and facilities. This causes some limitations in access to various functions, amenities, and urban activities for inhabitants in their vicinity or within their neighborhood and creates plenty of unnecessary commuting. Among recent studies that are attempting to discover new sustainable models to deal with these challenges, the “15-minute city” concept, which focuses on accessing basic daily needs and services within 15 minutes of walking or cycling from one’s home, tries to address equitable access to different services and facilities.

Gli effetti della crescita urbana comportano diverse sfide e problemi, soprattutto nei quartieri periferici delle città che sono lontani dai servizi e dalle infrastrutture nel centro urbano. Ciò causa disagi agli abitanti limitandoli nell’accedere ai servizi cittadini e obbligandoli a spostamenti non necessari. Tra questi è interessante il lavoro che si concentra sul concetto della “Città dei 15 minuti”, il modello si basa sulla possibilità di un accesso equo alle strutture, ai bisogni e ai servizi quotidiani e tutto entro 15 minuti a piedi o in bicicletta da casa. In questa prospettiva la tesi, fornendo un breve ma completo quadro teorico del concetto di “Città dei 15 minuti” come parte di una più ampia narrativa di pianificazione urbana sostenibile, mira a contestualizzare il “Quartiere di 15 minuti” a Lurup (quartiere periferico di Amburgo, Germania). L’obiettivo principale dello studio è quello di definire un quartiere locale inclusivo ed equo considerando il quadro della “Città dei 15 minuti” come approccio guida. Attraverso l’analisi delle principali dimensioni del concetto mediante un modello basato su GIS, attraverso l’indagine sull’attuale distribuzione di servizi e strutture e sulla loro accessibilità per i residenti, lo studio identifica ostacoli significativi, individua potenziali alternative per lo sviluppo e la realizzazione di tale concetto in questo distretto. Questa analisi mira ad esplorare la resilienza delle risorse e delle infrastrutture urbane per supportare la struttura calpestabile e policentrica del quartiere con un livello di base garantito di accessibilità ai bisogni quotidiani attraverso modalità di mobilità a piedi o attive al fine di migliorare la vita, il lavoro, la socializzazione a livello locale e il pendolarismo all’interno del quartiere.

Abstract
The effects of urban growth result in different challenges and issues, especially in the peripheral districts of cities that are far from the central urban services and facilities. This causes some limitations in access to various functions, amenities, and urban activities for inhabitants in their vicinity or within their neighborhood and creates plenty of unnecessary commuting. Among recent studies that are attempting to discover new sustainable models to deal with these challenges, the “15-minute city” concept, which focuses on accessing basic daily needs and services within 15 minutes of walking or cycling from one’s home, tries to address equitable access to different services and facilities. In this perspective, the thesis, by providing a brief but comprehensive theoretical framework of the “15-minute city” concept as part of a broader sustainable urban planning narrative, aims to contextualize the “15-minute neighborhood” in Lurup (a peripheral neighborhood in Hamburg, Germany). The main objective of the study is to perceive a locally inclusive and equitable neighborhood by considering the “15-minute city” framework as a guiding approach. Through the analysis of the concept’s main dimensions by a GIS-based model and an investigation of the current distribution of services and facilities and their availability for residents, the study identifies significant barriers and potential alternatives for developing and realizing the concept in this district. This analysis aims to explore the resilience of urban resources and infrastructures to support the walkable and polycentric structure of the neighborhood with a guaranteed basic level of accessibility to daily needs by walking or active modes of mobility in order to enhance locally based living, working, socializing, and commuting within the neighborhood.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
