👉 The Town Council has approved converting the old Benissa road into a one-way street to improve road safety and ease traffic flow.
🚗 This road, which connects the Ràfol area with Empedrola II, has width and visibility limitations that made it difficult for vehicles to pass each other in both directions.
📈 In addition, increased traffic in recent years and recorded incidents have made it necessary to regulate circulation.
➡️ The new direction will be Benissa – Calp, with access from Empedrola II.
🪧 In the coming days, new signage will be installed and residents will be informed of the changes.

This week, work has begun on drafting the project for the reconstruction and reinforcement of the slope of this emblematic path, which was damaged by the 2023 storm.

🌊 The project will improve safety, strengthen resistance to wave impact, and reduce erosion, all through a solution that blends into the landscape.

🛠️ It will define the best technical solutions and pave the way for the future execution of the works.
