Final Tweaks to Benirràs Road Promise Easier Access for Ibiza Beachgoers

Exciting news for those with a British penchant for the alluring sands of Benirràs beach, as the latest improvements to its access road reach their final stages. This week marks the conclusion of work at the crucial point of kilometre 2.7, promising an opening of this section for traffic. As this phase wraps up, expect simultaneous enhancements at two further junctions at kilometre points 2.9 and 3.15. Worry not–at least one lane will remain open, with traffic managed via temporary light systems to keep things flowing smoothly. As construction progresses, detour signs on the Camí Vell de Benirràs will be removed to spare motorists any unnecessary detours. These meticulous plans aim to ensure a safe, seamless journey to this beloved cove for tourists basking in the Ibiza sunshine.
