Our proposal of the River Vah embankment in Ruzomberok was preceded by an architectural competition for a pedestrian bridge between Ruzomberok and village Likavka. Currently, the embankment in the center of the town is "occupied" by primary road with heavy traffic, but from which the transit traffic will be diverted to the highway in the near future. In Ruzomberok therefore consider the transformation of the embankment with aim to create a public space for pedestrians and cyclists.
In our proposal we developed the intention to divide the primary road into two separate circuits - direction to Poprad along the left bank of the river and the direction to Zilina on the right bank. On the free space that arise on the Embankment of General M. R. Stefanik (left bank) we created pedestrian zone with residential and retail and services parterre towards the river along the length of the circuit, so we wanted to expand the existing central pedestrian zone and attract city life to this part of town. We completely removed the road barrier by underpass so pedestrians and cyclists avoid a possible collision with a motor vehicle.
On the right bank we have "cleaned up" space of bus station. We replaced needless stalls by the bus station office building and residential housing with parterre. Part of the right embankment from the pedestrian bridge towards the opposite side of the station we conceived as an area designed for outdoor relaxing sports and leisure time activities.
