"I think we are not mistaken, in view of the gratitude we were shown by businessmen and neighborhood associations based in the districts affected by the opening of the last sections of the road"

Councilor for Development, Roque Ortiz, has responded to the criticism of Cambiemos about the opening of the North Coast that its implementation "has had a direct improvement on urban mobility, as it constituted the closure of the arterial belt in the environment Of the city, and a substantial improvement in the quality of life of those who live in these districts. "

"I think it is an example of efficiency and diligence to open a road to traffic when it is in good condition and meets all the technical requirements, even if a small part has to do so on a provisional basis," says the owner of Fomento.

The road has all the recommended safety measures, it has horizontal and vertical signage, bollards of separation between lanes and the width of the same is even higher than those advised.

Of the 3,3 km of new tracks, only 900 meters of the sixth lane of circulation is enabled for cyclists in a provisional way, since the Commonwealth of Channels of the Taibilla has pending to execute works.

This circumstance means that one of the six lanes of traffic has been reserved for bike lane, leaving five open to vehicular traffic.

The separation between the two lanes of road traffic and the provisional bicycle lane is temporary, it has the sole object of isolating road traffic of bicycle traffic, and will be replaced by the definitive bicycle lane as soon as the Commonwealth completes its works and can Finish running the missing zone.

Regarding the sidewalks, its construction corresponds to the private partial plans annexed to the Coastal and not to the general system that is the North Coast.

In addition, Ortiz has explained that a traffic light for pedestrians is being set up that did not include the project because there is no sidewalk or pedestrian walkway that reaches that traffic light, but the usual crossing of pedestrians in that place 'forces' to place it.

Finally, Roque Ortiz recalled that businessmen and associations of neighbors in the districts affected by the opening of the last sections of the road manifested their satisfaction grateful for the opening of the last sections built the North Coast without waiting a few years for the Commonwealth of Channels of Taibilla finalize the work that has pending.
