Description: From the 70s to 2009 the access to Manzanares river was blocked for citizens by a highway. In 2003 the city council decided to create a green corridor and to bury underground the driving circulation underneath a longitudinal park. The buried beltway civil engineering works were finished on 2007. During the last phase of urbanisation, the mayor creates this International Lighting Award to take citizens attention to this new area around the river. This project was the winiNg proposal, but it has never been done because of budget restrictions.
