Support for the Preparation and Implementation of the New Linear Park La Paz- El Alto (Thakhi Tantasiña)

The objective of this TC is to finance the studies associated with the preparation and implementation of the New La Paz-El Alto Linear Park (Thakhi Tantasiña). Through a Bank-financed Program, a 17-kilometer linear park will be built between the two cities, which will provide greater access to quality public spaces for recreation and social integration in a large natural corridor that will boost the active mobility of their habitants. Likewise, the habitat will be improved in the areas surrounding it, including the improvement and / or construction of eco-efficient social interest housing, together with a network of services and programs of public interest and incorporating adaptation and mitigation measures to climate change. With respect to this last issue, this TC will promote, as a measure for the improvement of the surrounding neighborhoods, the construction of "green" homes in order to support families to obtain significant savings in energy and water.
