City Port concept in Nuquí

City port

As the first City – Port in the country, before any intervention we carry out a land use study to plan the territory: we define the public service requirements for the city and the port area (water, electricity and sanitation), separate the housing area from the industrial port area and delimit specific zones for environmental protection, tourism and future expansion.

By incorporating this new urban land we seek to plan and design a Port City articulated and connected to the current urban centre. It is an opportunity to address existing problems associated with the lack of roads, safe and adequate housing, domestic public services and social facilities, as well as environmental deterioration.
