008 Green Aorta

The metropolis continues to grow and expropriates the landscape of its qualities to facilitate the metropolis. How long will that go well?

Across the urbanized area of the MRDH, the metro track from The Hague via Pijnacker and Rotterdam to Spijkenisse forms future Green Aorta. A green line, which represents the landscape qualities of the MRDH midst of the densely built-up metropolitan landscape. These interventions contribute to the renewal of the city and the surrounding landscape, create an attractive and unique economic business climate and form new connections, production and distribution possibilities along an existing metro track. The Green Aorta is a radical form of combining various functions within the metropolis, with the aim to make the metropolis more resilient and to create fresh awareness of the landscape qualities the MRDH has to offer.
