22 September
We closed to traffic the downhill direction of one of the main entrance roads to the town, which is called the Girona road. This is a pilot test that will end in the permanent closure of this direction of traffic. The future uses of the space are being studied in a mobility master plan and will be dedicated to other uses, such as a bike lane and other vehicles.
