Buenos Aires (Argentina): A new, smoother, safer corridor

One effective solution to the challenge posed is the establishment of a new road layout for the city and the port. This approach has proven successful in Buenos Aires with the completion of the ‘Paseo del Bajo’ in 2019. This project has significantly improved port competitiveness, reduced the environmental impact of port activities, and optimised the accessibility of port-city sites. It has facilitated the smooth movement of trucks and goods between the port, the city centre, and the hinterland while creating space for new and improved pedestrian and bicycle lanes.

This good practice also includes objective 8.1 (Incorporating measures designed to reduce port nuisances into building design) of the AIVP’s 2030 Agenda.
