   3. Other Information
   The Site is located inside Shkodra Municipality.
   Geographically this area extends from the Buna bridge in the south, continues along the national road of Shkodra in the direction of the city to the bypass roundabout in the east and follows the bypass to the point of union with the old bypass in the north. To the west it is bordered by the waters of the Buna River and Lake Shkodra.
   The Project area is very sparsely populated. Natural soil occupies the largest percentage. Its functionality is divided into two parts:
   – South part, in which there is a casual park, some businesses and a promenade.
   –    North part, otherwise known as the part between two bypasses, low natural soil.
   Wetland Park is a special area located at the north of the site. This strategic area protects the wetland of Shkodra lake allowing its flooding in rainy seasons. At the same time, Wetland Park provides recreational functions for the citizens compatible with the flooding of the area such as walking and resting areas with views over the wetlands and sports facilities. Wetland Park has enormous strategic importance for Shkodra because it is a pioneer climate adapted project in Albania that regulates the flooding. This green buffer can also become a model for the sustainable development of the city in contact with Shkodra lake.
