The Elotrio City Council will begin construction of a new sidewalk in the San Agustín neighborhood tomorrow, November 3rd, aiming to improve road safety in the municipality.

The new pedestrian route will run parallel to the road towards Durango, covering the section between the church and the current pedestrian crossing. The main objective of this intervention is to provide the neighborhood with a safe pedestrian transit, substantially improving road safety in the area. This action is part of the commitments made with Podemos, resulting from the agreement reached for the approval of the 2026 municipal budgets.
The works, scheduled to start tomorrow, are estimated to last for 4 weeks. During the construction period, traffic in the area will be altered, and vehicle circulation will be regulated by traffic lights.
