There are pavement works going on where the fair line offices are. These are not a problem as work doesn't start until most people are awake, however who's ever car alarm is going off at 5 am in the morning is going to Make a grumpy sunshinedrive today, oh well I'm up so I might as well go for a jog.

Going back to the road works in the Port, they have now changed priorities on Vicenc Buades. I assume this is a traffic calming measure as they have put some speed humps along the stretch going past the school/ swimming pool/ health center, parking bays are now "nose" into the pavement and you have to stop at the junction with C/Tramuntana (by La Roda). This is working well as it really is slowing the traffic down , before it was like a speed track .

Good idea. That's a wide bit of road so will give a lot more parking with "nose in" parking.

Ah, but while we were in La Roda yesterday lunchtime we saw two cars go racing across and the car turning from the Tramuntana had to stop rather quickly. I guess they'll get used to it.

Yes i was there last night and it was the same, i think there could be a few crunches until the locals get used to it. This is where the powers that be here fall down, in the UK when a road layout or priorities change there is always a sign to warn drivers but here they just do it .
