Goal: help residents cope with extreme heat in Valencia by creating shaded, walkable “cool corridors” linking vulnerable neighborhoods to key services.
What we will do
Design and implement 3 Cool Corridors (2–3 km each) connecting homes to health centers, markets, and public transport.
Plant new trees where possible and install shade structures where planting is limited (narrow streets, underground networks).
Add 8 public drinking water points with maintenance plan and accessibility features.
Create rest areas every ~400–600 meters (benches, shade, lighting).
Improve crossings and sidewalks on the route: curb ramps, tactile paving, safer junction markings.
Publish a simple heat-safe walking map and on-street signage for navigation.
Why this matters
Heatwaves increase health risks for older adults, children, and people with chronic conditions.
Some areas have low tree cover and long walking distances between shaded spaces.
Cooling public space is a public health measure, not just an urban design preference.
How we’ll deliver
Mapping: combine heat data, shade coverage, and resident feedback to define the corridors.
Quick wins: install temporary shade and seating first, before summer peak.
Permanent works: finalize tree planting, water points, and accessibility upgrades.
Monitoring: track usage, surface temperature changes (sample points), and satisfaction surveys.
Expected results
More people able to walk safely during hot days, with fewer heat-stress incidents.
Better comfort and accessibility for daily errands and mobility.
Visible climate adaptation that benefits residents immediately.
Notes: water points will be placed with anti-vandal design and planned maintenance. Tree species will prioritize drought resilience and local biodiversity.
