Recover disused lines is an opportunity for environmental and territorial enhancement as widely witnessed by many recent achievements, especially to support new forms of sustainable tourism and as an efficient way to preserve biodiversity. However, the meanings of these operations may be further "enriched", looking for more innovative patterns from the experience of different stakeholders in various Mediterranean countries, with a maximum of integration of policies and projects, especially in defence of biodiversity and circular economy.

 

The project aim is to develop an innovative proposal for recovery of linear systems of disused connection:

·         Abandoned or underutilized lines;

·         Disused railway lines;

·         Abandoned road links to the changed historical conditions (eg. mountain record linking);

·         Disused road sections for the bypass variants and effect, road sections downgraded as a result of double effect of variants).

 

Valorizing the importance of the great historic and cultural value of this patrimony, rescue it from the total disappearance, and recover this great potential to reuse it in eco-tourism, according to the new social demands purposes.
