The action consists in the renewal of the pavement of the road, the construction of two roundabouts to improve safety and facilitate traffic movements at the junctions with the other two roads (C15 and Barranco Hondo).
The deadline for submission of bids of companies interested in carrying out this work begins tomorrow, Tuesday and will end next August 18.

The work to improve the RM-711 also includes measures to improve mobility and accessibility for people.
