The Santa Cruz de Tenerife City Council, through the Mobility and Public Services department, has announced various conditions regarding road traffic, including the closure of certain roads and streets, along with the removal of some surface parking areas. This is due to events such as the unveiling of the Carnival 2025 poster, the launch of the Tenerife Island Rallytomorrow, and the Santa Cruz Extreme event that will traverse part of the Anaga massif. Residents are advised to heed the instructions from police and posted signs.

Regarding tomorrow, Friday, in relation to the presentation of the Carnival 2025 poster, six online parking spaces will be designated, located on the right side in the direction of traffic along the Alameda del Duque Santa Elena, which are currently used for unloading and loading (2) and for motorbikes (4). This reservation will be in effect from 2:00 p.m. until the conclusion of the event, approximately at 11:59 p.m.

Additionally, to facilitate the event and considering the expected influx of attendees, a segment of Bravo Murillo Avenue will be closed between Imeldo Seris and Plaza del Cabildo, redirecting traffic along Imeldo Serís towards Marítima Avenue from 8:00 p.m. until the event concludes, along with the relocation of the Bravo Murillo taxi rank and that at Plaza de España (in front of Cabildo) until 11:59 p.m., which is the anticipated end of the event.

Regarding the Plaza de España parking facility, signage will indicate entry and exit, while the exit from Plaza España to Avda. Marítima will remain unaffected, impacting solely the entry through Plaza de España, which will be closed as the road in front of the Town Hall is utilized.
