Answer

Will the new bypass in Artà actually reduce traffic in the town centre?

The plan is for the bypass to ease pressure on Artà’s centre and reduce through-traffic, especially around the busiest streets. The expected benefit is a noticeable drop in local traffic, but that depends on how much car traffic is diverted rather than simply redirected. Long-term monitoring will be important to see whether the road really changes everyday movement in town.
