The president of the Cabildo de Tenerife, Pedro Martín, has announced from the neighborhood of La Rambla, in San Juan de la Rambla, that the processes have been launched to call for tenders for the project to create a new access infrastructure to this core of the municipality.
“This road does not belong to the Cabildo and, in addition, it is a space that is located in a protected natural area, which is why we have been looking for alternatives that would allow us to offer a solution,” said the president.
“We can say that we have been lucky, we have met with the Government of the Canary Islands and this month, after numerous reports, meetings and proposals, the tender for the project will be launched so that the different alternatives can be presented and we can already have a document that allows us to carry out works in the future that will come to provide a definitive solution, not with one more lane or a strange exit, but with a new road that reorganizes all the traffic in this area and that guarantees safety, both for those who drive on here as for the pedestrians”, he declared.
For his part, Mayor Ezequiel Domínguez stressed that “after waiting more than 40 years to have an exit with security guarantees for La Rambla, and after the commitment that the insular president acquired in July last year with the residents, we announced the drafting of the project to start these works”.
Pedro Martín met on several occasions with the residents of the neighborhood in which he promised to start the drafting of a new project, based on enabling an underground passage at the height of Barranco Ruiz, and the execution of this to solve definitively the problem of access to the TF-21 from La Rambla.
