The Ministry for the Ecological Transition has informed Torrevieja town hall of the start of public consultation on the Bypass Project, the road widening scheme for the N-332 as it passes through Torrevieja, which includes the section between the Torrevieja Hospital and the intersection with the CV-905 highway.
Torrevieja Council received communication from the General Subdirectorate of Environmental Evaluation, dependent on the Ministry of Ecological Transition, and which is the body that must process the environmental evaluation files of projects that depend on the Government of Spain, in which the Council is informed that the public consultation of the environmental evaluation procedure of the Project to Duplicate the N-332 Bypass through Torrevieja has been initiated.
The Variant Project is included within one of the assumptions of environmental processing in road projects, as stated in Law 21/2013, of December 9, on Environmental Assessment, and whose Environmental Impact Declaration must be issued before of the final approval of the construction project and, consequently, prior to the bidding of the works.
It should be noted that Torrevieja town hall were cited in failings during the original road widening campaign which ultimately left the road in the state it remains to date.
