Eptisa has carried out the Project and the Construction Management.
This week the execution works of the new bike lane that joins the existing ones in Pablo Picasso and the roundabout next to the Elviña market, crossing the Paxariñas roundabout, have been completed.
The project involved an intervention in 1,200 square meters to install 480 meters of one-way bike lane and 170 meters of bi-directional section, which add up to a total of almost 800 meters of new cycling routes.

Both infrastructures were not efficiently connected, especially due to the problem posed by the Paxariñas roundabout crossing, due to the high volume of traffic and heavy vehicles, which made it an unattractive route for cyclists.
The works have consisted of the construction of the new bike lane, the rearrangement of pedestrian spaces and green areas, the installation of elevated pedestrian crossings in the Alfonso Molina branches to reduce traffic, the installation of signaling and beaconing elements to guarantee the
On the other hand, this action was accompanied by improvements in accessibility and the humanization of the environment. Crossings have been widened to improve visibility.
The pedestrian itineraries were also extended and the sidewalks were renewed.
