Artà: Bypass between Betlem and Sa Clota — Help for the village or a traffic amplifier?

Answer

What could the Artà bypass mean for everyday life in the village?

If the project works as intended, it could make daily life calmer by reducing noise, improving access, and easing pressure on the narrow streets in Artà. That would matter for residents, pedestrians, and places that are busy on market days or around the chapel of Betlem. The concern is that it must not simply attract more traffic from outside and create a new problem near the village edge.
