Answer

Are Mallorca’s roads and public transport keeping up with growth?

Not really, at least not everywhere. Traffic pressure is already visible in busy parts of the island, especially around Palma and in expanding municipalities where commuting and deliveries have increased. Public transport can help, but it also needs coordination with housing patterns and future development.
