from the change of Arruzafilla Avenue to the traffic that will have

He Board of Directors approved this Tuesday afternoon the expenses of 34.5 million to execute the first phase of the Northern Ring Road, a key road infrastructure to complete the capital’s ring road. ABC dissects the keys to this important project.

1. The layout

He regional executive will intervene on a section of 722 meters. The route starts from the García Moreno academic roundabout (intersection with Ronda de Poniente, in front of the El Tablero leisure center) to the Carrefour Sierra roundabout (Santa Beatriz).

2. A renovated Arruzafilla avenue

The fundamental intervention will be generation of a renewed avenue of Arruzafilla in the section located between the two aforementioned roundabouts. The new four-lane road will be located almost half a meter below ground level to dampen traffic noise – noise pollution is one of neighbors’ biggest concerns.

3. A displaced Arruzafilla avenue

This is another of the great novelties that this first phase will leave: the new avenue of Arruzafilla HE will move an average of 21 meters towards park of the same name -currently in progress and which is similar to that of Flamenco-.

In this way, it is separated from the floors and a service road can be created, on the side of the homes, designed for the residents of the neighborhood so that they can, for example, travel it on foot. And there will be parking.

4. Redevelopment of the Hipercor roundabout

He the project envisages Likewise, measures will be taken in the Hipercor roundabout (it will go high: there will be traffic below), which belongs to the Ronda de Poniente section which will be connected to the North. As noted, it will be laid out on two levels, so that the elevation of the aforementioned Ronda de Poniente is lowered to pass under the roundabout.

Córdoba City Hall has emphasized that this intervention will put an end to the current roundabout of this large commercial complex. advantageoussince currently this roundabout is “a disaster, because it is a neck“.

5. Other interventions

THE Carrefour Sierra roundabout (Santa Beatriz) will also be remodeled in this macro-performance. The planned works also include the renovation of the intersection of Brillante Avenue with Arruzafilla Avenue and Escultor Fernández Márquez Street.

The variations, indicated this autonomous Department, have increased by a million the budget for the first phase. The North West District Council – the one directly concerned by the route whose work will begin in 2025 – has expressed its rejection of the final project and continues to demand that this section be buried. He PSOE He assured that there would be citizen mobilizations against this work.

7. Budget and duration

He budget of this first phase of the Northern Cycle will be 34.5 million -double what was initially proposed in 2020 when the Council saved it from the oblivion to which the PSOE had subjected it-. The duration of the work will be 30 months.

8. Traffic volume

From the Town Hall, which participated in the Commission’s dialogue with the neighborhood movement on this road infrastructure, it was emphasized that the first phase of the Northern Cycle will generate A “main avenuelike Vallellano; “There will be no cars going 150 kilometers per hour.”

Technicians predict that the first tranche of the Northern Cycle will support between 25,000 And 30,000 vehicles one day at its inflection point, the half of those who circulate through the Northern Road.

9. Impact on traffic

The mayor, José María Bellido, indicated that “it more urgent», to improve traffic in the city, is the execution of the first phase. “This is where there are the most traffic jams, around Arruzafilla and Nuevo Poniente and at the roundabout in front of Hipercor. In this roundabout, the passage between the neighborhoods and the new expansion area of ​​Poniente has intervened and benefits from it,” said the first mayor.

10. What will remain after the first phase?

THE The Northern Cycle includes a secondand finally, phase. This is a provision of 1.6 kilometers which will connect the Carrefour Sierra roundabout to the Ruiz de Azúa area and the Madres Escolapias roundabout, where the municipal section of this road infrastructure ends. The latter opened to traffic in June 2021.

In this last section, the doubts They are awakened by its enormous cost – this section will resort to burial – and the long delays that its materialization will require – the Council has not yet given a timetable, but, given that of the first phase, it seems extended. It is enough to recall that in 2020, during the presentation of the preliminary project, the Council spoke of a cost of 79.1 million. Only the rise in material prices will increase this.
