Answer

Why are there so many roadworks in Mallorca during winter?

Winter is a quieter period for tourism, so municipalities in Mallorca often use it for road, sidewalk and utility upgrades. The idea is to finish disruptive work when fewer visitors are affected, although residents and local businesses still have to deal with closures and detours.
