Ring Road: New Pedestrian Bridges — Safety or Hasty Decision?

Answer

Why is the bridge near Can Pastilla also being replaced?

A similar bridge on the airport motorway near Can Pastilla is also due for replacement because it is part of the same wider issue: ageing pedestrian infrastructure in a busy traffic area. The aim is to avoid repeating short-term fixes and instead build something safer and easier to maintain. In a place with heavy traffic and frequent crossings, durability matters as much as appearance.
