The Ideas Competition fits well in this context to complete it and enrich it with stimuli, ideas and contents with evident effects and real measures focussed on giving an identity and some values to all the Porta San Francesco and Porta Saragozza area.
- AIM 1: Encouraging people to visit the area and the development of economic activities by means of urban marketing and communication measures that will give a new image to the area;
- AIM 2: Rehabilitate and improve the public areas, improving area access, usage and perception, in cooperation with the public and private measures that have already been carried out, will be carried out or are planned to be.
