Work Detail

Architectural, Engineering And Planning Services – Most Footbridge: New Connection Of The City, Landscape And The Lake. The Subject Of The Competition Is A Design For A New Pedestrian And Cycle Bridge That Will Overcome The Historically Formed Barrier Between The Town Of Most And The New Landscape Of Lake Most, Created By The Convergence Of Road Infrastructure, Railway And Tram Lines, And The Modified Riverbed Of The Bílina River. The Aim Is Not Only To Physically Connect The Two Parts Of The City, But Also To Symbolically And Mentally Reunite Them. The Footbridge Is Set To Become A Key Element Of A New Urban Axis Connecting The City Centre, The Museum, The Recreational Area Around The Lake And The Site Near The Relocated Church Of The Assumption Of The Virgin Mary; At The Same Time, It Will Become A Significant Architectural Landmark And A New Gateway To The City When Approaching From Litvínov. The Competition Brief Also Includes A Proposal For The Surrounding Public Spaces In Front Of The Footbridge. On The Town Side, A New Museum Park Is To Be Created – A Dignified Forecourt For The Museum Which, In Synergy With Cultural Institutions And Memorial Sites, Will Form A High-Quality Urban Space With Significant Landscape, Recreational And Social Value. On The Lake Side, Competition Entries Are To Propose A Landscape Connection And Pedestrian And Cycle Links Between The Footbridge And Lake Most, And To Design A Clear And Attractive Entry Point To This Area. The Site Is Divided Into Sections. The Subject Of The Subsequent Tender Is The Complete Project Documentation Of The Footbridge Itself, Including The Approach Areas, And The New Museum Park. At A Conceptual Level, The Competition Entries Should Explore The Possibility Of Creating A Wider Linear Park Connecting The Museum And Also The State District Archives, As Well As A Concept For A Landscape Connection Towards Lake Most. The Aim Is To Create A Coherent, Clear And Long-Term Sustainable Framework For The Gradual Transformation Of This Key Area. The Aim Of The Competition Is To Treat The Site As A Single Entity And To Select A Single Multidisciplinary Team To Design Both The Footbridge And The Park. However, Where Justified, The Jury May Decide To Select Two Separate Winners, Which May Lead To Two Subsequent Separate Negotiated Procedures Without Prior Publication (Jrbu) For The Footbridge And The Park.
