The Black Stork criticises the Ministry of Development for the chaotic situation on the 340
The Black Stork Ornithological Group has protested against the work being carried out in the western access to Algeciras as “ a botched job by the Ministry of Development #8221; given that these road works have not improved the situation for access to Algeciras in the areas of Cortijo Real and Pastores but they have notably worsened the flow of traffic on the National Road 340 between Algeciras and Tarifa causing daily delays. A perfect tool for development between the users of the road in construction on the motorway A-48 in the opinion of Black Stork.
The socialist representative for the Cadiz province, Salvador de la Encina, protested recently “ the necessity to construct the motorway A-48 in accordance with the chaos that is being caused at the moment on the 340 Road without appreciating that the chaos in Algeciras is caused by the work being carried out by the Ministry that he represents ”. For this group, the national road 340 passing towards the end of Algeciras and Tarifa is a route whose Daily average Intensity (IMD), without being very high, could be reduced even more with sufficient signposting for the motorway that already exists in Comarca, the A-381. Being able to reach the 340 road levels of Daily Average Intensity which are quite low by improving the signposting for the A-381 (Los Barrios- Jerez+ Cadiz).
Despite this, the National 340 undeniably requires the modernization of numerous crossings and above all the access to the beach areas in Tarifa that collapse during various weekends in the summer period. However during those times the Ministry of Development, due to the desperation of the drivers, carry out road works to stretch out the road at 5 points (Western access to Algeciras; Pelayo to cabrito; the situation of road works during this summer period in the main access areas to the beaches and the recently created Western access to Algeciras, that has caused enormous daily traffic delays which were rare before are “ a clear example of the lack of planning by the Ministry of Development and the best form of propaganda possible to propel the project for the A-48 motorway”.
