Road works with the six-kilometer-long thoroughfare through San Pedro Alcántara Marbella municipality will be finished in December. Then the tunnel will be ready and thoroughfare open to traffic. The project has since its inception encountered several problems. Heavy rain storms created flooding in the area of Cañada Ortega, who in turn created drainage problems at Plaza Vista Alegre.
“I can reassure all residents that all problems are sorted and the tunnel will be completed and opened in December,” said Miguel Troyano, deputy mayor of the community of San Pedro Alcántara. Coast road A-7 passing through San Pedro has an average of 65,000 vehicles per day. The project to make a tunnel under the San Pedro began four years ago. Above the A-7 construction planned a city park of 90,000 square meters.
