The City Council has submitted a project that seeks to open an access from Wellington Street Barcelona continues the transformation of Parc de la Ciutadella with the creation of a new access from Wellington Street that will connect the area with the park through a new dream walkway: a bridge over the zoo This intervention will improve the connection between the Ciutat Vella core the Vila Olímpica and the Til-lers promenade consolidating the park as a more permeable The project is part of the Ciutadella del Coneixement Strategy which seeks to turn this emblematic green lung into a research and dissemination center of reference in Europe The new walkway will recover a historic access designed by Josep Fontserè integrating it into the current layout of the park This new “biodiversity promenade” will be at least 20 meters wide and have a total surface area of 26,000 m² and will extend from Wellington Street to Passeig de Picasso In order to connect the currently open part of the park with Wellington Street the promenade will have to cross a section that is currently occupied by the zoo This will be achieved by opening a new subway access to the zoo on Wellington Street which will be completely integrated into the park and which will force the new “bioversity promenade” to run above the zoo (although always at street level) and from which the zoo can be glimpsed This project will favor the connection between neighborhoods such as Vila Olímpica and will integrate public transport stations such as Ciutadella-Vila Olímpica and the streetcar improving accessibility for thousands of citizens The project will begin this January with the drafting of the executive project the works will be tendered in autumn and will start in the first quarter of 2026 with an estimated duration of one year and a total investment of 13 million euros The Zoo will remain open throughout the project but about ten facilities will be affected and some animals will have to move to the reserve that has been built on the site of the old Aquarama This last project included the recovery of a mythical bridge that is always talked about but never crystallizes: the one that is to connect the Parc de la Ciutadella with the promenade Look out for your first newsletter in your inbox soon We help you navigate a myriad of possibilities Sign up for our newsletter for the best of the city By entering your email address you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy and consent to receive emails from Time Out about news Sign up for our email to enjoy your city without spending a thing (as well as some options when you’re feeling flush) Our newsletter hand-delivers the best bits to your inbox Sign up to unlock our digital magazines and also receive the latest news By entering your email address you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy and consent to receive emails from Time Out about news, events, offers and partner promotions.
