Portocolom renews its harbour: Between tradition and the rooftop promenade
Why Portocolom Is Adding a Rooftop Promenade
Portocolom’s rooftop promenade aims to create more public space while keeping the harbour footprint unchanged.
Published: April 21, 2026
Answer
Why is a rooftop promenade being planned in Portocolom?
The rooftop promenade is a way to create more public space without widening the shoreline. It is meant to improve access and walking routes while keeping the harbour layout compact. Because it sits on roof surfaces, the design needs careful attention to safety, drainage, load-bearing capacity and maintenance.
