Two new bike lanes to join the Fica Stables and the Regional Library with Zarandona (04/03/2010)

This year we will implement the Bicycle Master Plan and the Office of the Bicycle

Murcia will end the year with two new bike lanes will provide better security for the Murcia who choose to use the bicycle as a regular means of transport or recreation.

The first is an extension of which runs parallel to River Butte thus making this green space and recreation in one of the largest in the municipality.

The City will build a new stretch of bike path, which depart from La Fica and you will reach the limit of the municipality of Murcia Beniel.

The route, 12.5 km long, run along the dirt road parallel to the Segura River and pass through existing roads which will be compatible with the bicycle lane traffic.

This work adds to the 12.5 miles that have already been executed.

In addition to bike lanes will be built alongside a pedestrian albero which may be used by cyclists and pedestrians.

The characteristics of this new infrastructure will be the same as the bike path between the Pier and the Contraparada.

The second route will begin bike lane in front of the Regional Library and will reach across the avenue Zarandona Juan Carlos I for an existing signalized pedestrian crossing and connecting with a bike lane and run on Connecticut Avenue north.

Across the avenue Prince of Asturias eastbound continue building on the current bike path to completion.

From this point begins to run the new work demolishing the existing pavement on the sidewalk and replacing the pavement of the new lane.

Run along the north side of the avenue crossing several streets perpendicular to it, including the Avenida Juan de Borbon, the point at which the avenue was renamed Ciudad de Aranjuez.

Where ends the urbanized area, the bike path runs adjacent to the outer curb of the avenue while keeping the same width as the rest of the urban section.

When you reach the intersection with the rail of the limes will cross City Avenue with a traffic Aranjuez button and continue to the south of the avenue with the same section to cross the avenue Kingdom of Murcia for existing traffic lights, thus reaching Zarandona.

The bike will have a combined length of 2,100 meters.

This is one way cycle tracks that are included in the design proposed by the Master Plan for the Use of the Bicycle in Murcia.

The new lane will connect existing sections as proposed objectives are met by the Plan among which was the creation of a consistent mesh and to ensure the safety of both cyclists and pedestrians.

These two works, including the State Fund for Employment and Local Sustainability, represent an investment of 1.8 billion euros.

The execution time for the bike path Stables is 6 months and will employ 42 people while linking the library with Zarandona is four months and has involved 23 people.

The bicycle is the main protagonist in 2010 and that the City will implement the Bicycle Master Plan and opened the Office of the bike.

Also, be extended to 86 kilometers of track cycling trails that already exist in the municipality and will continue working to create new infrastructure and maintaining existing ones.
