Modernisation of Neris quays, creating innovative spaces for creativity, conditions for active recreation, wellness events in the Northern Territory

There is a lack of recreational and active recreation public spaces in the Northern Target Area of Vilnius. The Neris quay is not attractive due to inadequate (unsuitable), worn-out and insufficient infrastructure, lack of attraction points and visitors flows, recreation and business creation and development. Therefore, a project is initiated, the aim of which is to contribute to favourable conditions for the development and creation of the business environment and to carry out community activities and initiatives, encouraging the increase of employment of the population in the target area of Vilnius city. To this end, it is planned to modernise the Neris quay by creating traction points near the Neris and basic infrastructure (including inlets for connection to engineering networks), creating conditions for business creation and development and increasing the employment of the population, improving the overall view of the territory, adapting the territory to recreation, community activities and improving its accessibility. During the project part of the concrete panels will be dismantled, trails, terraces, slopes, lighting, rainwater, small architecture will be demolished, greenfields are formed, active leisure area is renovated, places for seasonal outdoor cafes and entrances to engineering networks are installed. Thanks to the modernised quay, all target groups of the project will benefit fully: citizens will be provided with space for recreation and community activities, business due to the built infrastructure and increased influx of people, and will create conditions for business creation and development, and the creation of new jobs.
