What happened
According to Sa Veu de Sóller and elsoller.cat, the town hall has set aside 400,000 euros to renew the surface of several roads in the municipality. Elsoller.cat adds that the governing board approved the contract on a Wednesday and that this is the fourth phase of the municipal plan to improve and maintain the urban road network. Sa Veu, for its part, said the project would be approved the following week. The two sources differ on this step, so we treat it as still to be confirmed.
The roads named are Carrer de França, Carrer de Puerto Rico, Carrer de Cetre, Carrer de Sant Jaume, the Camí de sa Figuera, the Camí de sa Torrentera (Carrer de sa Torrentera in elsoller.cat), the Camí des Fossaret, the Camí de Binibassí and the Camí des Camp Llarg. A fund for repairing small damaged sections in various places comes on top.
The total surface is around 11,100 square metres and the length about 2.97 km. Infrastructure councillor Carlos Darder places the work inside a plan to renew the worst-hit roads step by step and improve safety and comfort for drivers and pedestrians. Sa Veu adds that fewer streets are covered this year than before because some of them are large.
What it means for visitors
This part is our own practical reading, not something stated in the sources:
- There are no dates yet, so there is nothing to plan around for now. If that changes, it will show up in the town hall news.
- Some of the roads are local access: the roads to sa Figuera, des Fossaret, Binibassí or des Camp Llarg are used mostly by residents and by people on foot or by bike in the valley.
- When works do happen, short closures or alternating traffic are typical for this kind of job, but the sources do not confirm it here.
- If you arrive by car, check the state of the street you are heading for before you set out, especially if you are looking for parking.
