More space for cyclists and pedestrians – but is it enough? Mallorca's plan for 60 km of safe routes

Answer

Why does maintenance matter for Mallorca’s new cycle paths?

Even a well-designed route can become unsafe if markings fade, sand collects in bends or the surface is not repaired quickly. In Mallorca, maintenance is especially important because wind, leaves and road dust can affect visibility and grip. Clear responsibility for upkeep will decide whether the routes stay useful over time.
