This thesis proposes a landscape-driven transformation of the Rhine–Lake Constance corridor, where fragmented settlements, transport infrastructure, and ecologically sensitive river systems intersect. The existing M202/L202 corridor functions primarily as a high-speed transit route, limiting ecological continuity, public engagement, and spatial identity. The project reframes the corridor as a resilient green mobility spine that connects Bregenz, Hard, Höchst, and Fußach through nature-based solutions, ecological restoration, and adaptive public programs. Flood mitigation landscapes, riparian buffers, eco-bridges, community gardens, and a circular economy yard collectively integrate biodiversity enhancement, climate resilience, and social activation. By transforming bridges into pause points and redistributing space from asphalt to landscape, the proposal shifts the corridor from a transitional infrastructure into a coherent socio-ecological system that strengthens both environmental performance and regional identity.
Questa tesi propone una trasformazione guidata dal paesaggio del corridoio Reno–Lago di Costanza, dove insediamenti frammentati, infrastrutture di trasporto e sistemi fluviali ecologicamente sensibili si intersecano. L’attuale asse M202/L202 funziona principalmente come infrastruttura di transito ad alta velocità, limitando continuità ecologica, qualità spaziale e identità territoriale. Il progetto ridefinisce il corridoio come una spina verde resiliente che connette Bregenz, Hard, Höchst e Fußach attraverso soluzioni basate sulla natura, ripristino ecologico e programmi pubblici adattivi. Paesaggi di mitigazione delle piene, fasce ripariali, eco-bridge, orti comunitari e un circular economy yard integrano biodiversità, resilienza climatica e attivazione sociale. La trasformazione dei ponti in luoghi di sosta e la ridistribuzione dello spazio dall’asfalto al paesaggio riconfigurano il corridoio come sistema socio-ecologico coerente e performante.

Abstract
This thesis proposes a landscape-driven transformation of the Rhine–Lake Constance corridor, where fragmented settlements, transport infrastructure, and ecologically sensitive river systems intersect. The existing M202/L202 corridor functions primarily as a high-speed transit route, limiting ecological continuity, public engagement, and spatial identity. The project reframes the corridor as a resilient green mobility spine that connects Bregenz, Hard, Höchst, and Fußach through nature-based solutions, ecological restoration, and adaptive public programs. Flood mitigation landscapes, riparian buffers, eco-bridges, community gardens, and a circular economy yard collectively integrate biodiversity enhancement, climate resilience, and social activation. By transforming bridges into pause points and redistributing space from asphalt to landscape, the proposal shifts the corridor from a transitional infrastructure into a coherent socio-ecological system that strengthens both environmental performance and regional identity.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
