The Budapest Development Centre has just issued a tender for a new project, the redesign of the Danube promenade in Kelenföld, south Buda. The aim is to make the riverfront more accessible to pedestrians and cyclists.
A large-scale project to revive the riverside promenade
in Újbuda is being carried out pedestrians and cyclists in mind, with a leisure
infrastructure also to be set up on the southern shores of Buda.
This section
of the Danube has been severely underused and the goal is to attract people to
this relatively unspoilt part of town.
The new promenade will start from the Dürer kert club
on Öböl utca, and will continue for more than 3.5 kilometres to the south, towards
the Buda end of the new Danube bridge planned at Galvani utca.
It will then
cross Keserű brook and join Árasztó út. From there, it finally reaches the city
limits over Hosszúréti stream.
