    International urban design ideas competition

    Trenčín – City on the River is announced by the City of Trenčín as open anonymous international urban design ideas competition seeking the best comprehensive urbanistic proposals for connecting the city centre with both waterfronts of the River Váh. We expect bold and fresh proposals from teams composed of professionals from architecture, urban planning, landscape design and other related fields, which will form the basis for development of a new Central Zone Masterplan for the city.

    The City of Trenčín seeks the best comprehensive urbanistic proposals for connecting the city centre with the river, making use of the space that is currently being transformed due to the modernisation and relocation of the railway track. The proposal should create a compact, animated city with a direct relationship to the river.

    The competition brief is a culmination of the initiative “Trenčín is You” – a nearly three-year long participatory process involving experts and the general public. As part of this process, the city representatives have taken part in open discussions with experts, multidisciplinary workshops and consultations, as well as discussions with the general public and public opinion surveys.

    The site is located directly in the heart of Trenčín, stretching between the historic city centre beneath the castle rock and both waterfronts of the River Váh. The site boundary and description of the context is illustrated on the enclosed aerial view map :

    The orange line marks the dam, which delineates the flood zone area (green area), linked through the existing railroad bridge, which is already now partly used as a pedestrian bridge. Its function as pedestrian and cyclist bridge can be expanded with new functions following the completion of the modernization of the railway and relocation of the railway track.

    The existing railroad bridge will be the subject of a separate architectural competition, leading to its revitalisation and redesign into a new landmark of the city on the river, retaining its promenade character.

    Registration: 4 March 2014
    Competition submission: 24 April 2014
