There is villavesas that They waste a lot of time at stops waiting for power join the traffic. It will end. At least, it will be like this in the Eleven Villavesa stops to be renovated in the coming months.
The work, which will begin in the middle of the month, will involve several stops in the districts of San Jorge, Echavacoiz, San Juan, Ermitagaña, Milagrosa and Lezkairu.
In each of them, progress will be made so that the city bus stops in its own lanefor loading and unloading passengers.
The stops to act on are currently configured as stopswhich prevent buses from stopping parallel to the sidewalk and having to perform approach maneuvers. All this causes accessibility issues in the operations of Passenger pick-up and drop-offespecially for people who have mobility issues and need the deployment of ramps.
The new advanced stops, which will be built on part of the road, seek to avoid these problems and facilitate access and exit from buses. This resource – they say – improves the commercial speed of the lines and, therefore, the quality of the service. “In addition, it eliminates the effect of vehicles stopped illegally on the reversing platforms and the inconveniences they cause to the good route of urban buses,” he added.
Concretely, there will be eleven advances In nine different placessince two of them have two opposite stops. They will operate at the stops of Guipúzcoa Avenue (next to the Santa Engracia Bridge), 17 San Roque Street (in front of the Navarra Courthouse, with two opposite stops), 34 Monasterio de Irache Street, Barañain No. 52 (in front of the Planetarium), Zaragoza Avenue in front of No. 13 (in front of the entrance to Navarro Villoslada Street), Adela Bazo Street-Avenida de Juan Pablo II (where there are also two opposite stops), Aróstegui Avenue (at the bridge over the Elorz River) and San Jorge Avenue, at two different points, one at number 69 (next to the intersection with Doctor Labayen Street) and another in front of number 17 (next to the football field).
The works, which will be duly marked for road traffic, will consist of: demolition of the border and the gutter and the sidewalk advancement with their new matching tile curbs and sidewalks. They will also be installed new awnings at the advanced stop and the painting of the bus stop signage will be changed to its new location. In addition, if necessary, new drains will be installed to collect rainwater.
