The Consell de Mallorca<\/strong> has unveiled the long-awaited refurbishment project for the Bunyola-Orient-Alar\u00f3 road<\/strong>, an 18-kilometre stretch in poor condition<\/strong> that has seen no major intervention<\/strong> in over 25 years<\/strong>. President Lloren\u00e7 Galm\u00e9s<\/strong> announced that the works will begin at the end of October<\/strong> and are expected to be completed before summer 2026<\/strong>. According to the island authority, the project will be carried out without consuming additional land<\/strong> or impacting the protected natural environment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The initiative, valued at \u20ac6.1 million<\/strong>, includes reinforcement of the road surface along the entire route<\/strong> and stabilisation of a critical section<\/strong> between kilometres 13 and 14. The budget is partially funded through an agreement with the Government of the Balearic Islands (\u20ac2 million), with the remainder covered by the Consell\u2019s secondary road improvement plan.<\/p>\n

Galm\u00e9s emphasised that upgrading this route has been a long-standing demand from local residents and cyclists<\/strong>, and that the project will now be implemented with sustainability criteria and without affecting protected areas.<\/p>\n

Sustainable works on the Bunyola-Orient-Alar\u00f3 road<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The work will include milling of the existing road surface<\/strong>, application of bituminous layers made with recycled materials<\/strong>, and renewal of road markings<\/strong>. In the most delicate stretch, soil consolidation injections<\/strong> will be carried out, along with ground anchoring using the soil nailing<\/em> technique, specific drainage systems, and asphalt adapted to mountainous terrain.<\/p>\n

The refurbishment aligns with the principles of circular economy and sustainability<\/strong>, promoting the reuse of aggregates and other materials. Although parts of the route pass through areas protected by the Natura 2000 network \u2014 such as the ZEC Puig d’Alar\u00f3 \u2013 Puig de s’Alcadena and the ZEPA of Alf\u00e0bia \u2014 the project has been declared environmentally non-intrusive<\/strong> as it does not extend the current route.<\/p>\n

The Directorate General for Natural Environment has also been consulted to ensure no impact on nesting species, and all established conditions will be strictly observed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
