Urban Integrated Plans (Mission 5 Component 2 Investment 5)
Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan provides for the regeneration, revitalization and enhancement of large degraded urban areas, with particular attention to the creation of new services for the person and the requalification of accessibility and inter-modal infrastructures, allowing the transformation of vulnerable territories into smart and sustainable cities. This investment includes two interventions: (I) support to general projects to deliver and implement urban integrated plans, such as maintenance and reuse of public areas and buildings, regeneration and valorisation of under-used or unused urban areas, etc. (II) specific projects to overcome illegal settlements in agriculture. Local administrations will be supported in the creation of action plans to overcome illegal settlements and provide decent housing solutions for workers in the agricultural sector. Furthermore, under this investment a thematic Fund (Fund of Funds) will be created, in collaboration with the EIB, targeting the support of private intervention in urban regeneration initiatives. This fund will be used to support the climate and digital transition of urban areas. This investment is financed by the NRRP by EUR 1.4 billion.
The Corviale Integrated Plan, in synergy with the other planned activities, aims to promote social, inclusive and sustainable development in the city. The aim is to transform the Corviale neighbourhood into a place of urban regeneration and community development, through wellness, sports, culture, community cooperation and supportive entrepreneurship initiatives. The intervention will involve disused properties to create spaces for social and cultural activities, promoting local employment and collaborative management of public assets. The project envisages an increase in services and neighbourhood commerce, through the introduction of new socio-cultural centres, free Wi-Fi zones, as well as a new State Police headquarters, a Post Office and a Pharmacy. Metal fences will be removed to improve accessibility to open spaces and integration of existing sports facilities. The construction of this linear gymnasium will promote social inclusion and sport. There are also plans to complete the Sports Park in Via Maroi with a new multi-purpose facility requested by the citizens of the municipality. The project will involve the regeneration of open spaces that connect the city to the countryside, improving the quality of life and the surrounding environment.
