The works to connect the AP-9 with the Cidade da Cultura began this Wednesday. If the execution period foreseen by the Ministry of Development is met, the link would be completed in February 2019. The action involves an investment of 3.36 million euros to develop four branches of almost two kilometers in length. It also includes the construction of a new roundabout and the modification of two existing ones. The objective is to improve access to the Gaiás complex and the connection of the Sar, Fontiñas and Concheiros neighborhoods.
The minister Íñigo de la Serna and the president of the Xunta, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, participated in the inauguration of the works. The laying of the first stone has been the perfect excuse for De la Serna, who, from the top of Mount Gaiás, dedicated himself, once again, to reviewing all the actions of his department. Feijóo hastened to point out that all these commitments could remain in the air if the General State Budgets are not approved. In that review, the head of Development was not able to specify a date for the abolition of the toll between Redondela and Vigo.
The minister highlighted the progress of the works for the Santiago-Lugo connection through the A-54 highway and the orbital link of the AP-9. He has also ensured that the actions to install the footbridges on the AP-12 in Oleiros are “very close to being awarded.” Nor has he forgotten to comment on the works for the rehabilitation of pavements on different national highways, the expansion of Avenida de Alfonso Molina in A Coruña or the interventions on the Ordes sur and Sigüeiro sur variants on the national N-550.
