To allow the left turn of the vehicles coming from the Quarry and that want to go towards Calasparra, a turning branch has been projected.

This is “a work that is the result of a historical claim by farmers, which Citizens endorsed and implemented at the time in the budget negotiations,â€� concluded Jerónimo Moya.
