Overview

• The city council led by PP and Vox inaugurated the 1.1-kilometer path through Las Moreras park this week to replace the 800-meter Isabel la Católica lane.
• Cyclist groups highlight 20 pedestrian crossings, steep sections and sharp turns as hazards that undermine daily commuting efficiency.
• The new path’s €810,000 price tag lifted total spending on both the original and replacement cycling infrastructure above €1 million.
• Opposition figures and cycling collectives condemn the decision as politically motivated and lacking supporting technical mobility reports.
• Municipal leaders defend the design as an effective alternative for traffic decongestion that maintains pedestrian and cyclist access.
