<BR>Revitalisation proposals resulted from the following factors: – to improve the path for walking people at the most visited places – to exlude car transport from the sqaure space – to revitalise green spaces – to localise small architecture elements – benches and bins – to develop street lighting – to remove posts for open air goods sales The revitalisation aim was to to make this place more attractive so that it can serve as a good quality public space after its reconstruction. During revitalisation period, former communication paths have been replaced by a unified, durable and easy maintained material (concrete pavement). Removal of automobile transport has been solved by construction of barriers against the cars (see pictures below).The present green spaces were renowed and new green spaces has been created. Such solution protected a maximum number of green spacea while preserving the present communication paths.

This district has been regarded as a modern residential area built in the late 70th and 80th. Taking into account the number of inahabitants (cca 115 000), it is the third biggest „town“ in Slovakia and it is an area with one of biggest density of people in Slovakia and in Central Europe. Vlastenecké square is often visited place developed with quite a good infrastructure (post office, schol, bank office, department store, hotel and restaurant and a bus stop.

These cars had negative and non safety impact on pedestrians walking along and on green places there.
