en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Spanish Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility has recently launched several highway tunnel modernization projects on the A-4 and A-44 highways in the province of Jaén, and the A-7 highway in the province of Granada. These works will impact traffic on three highways that form the backbone of Andalusia's transportation network.

In the province of Jaén, the La Cerradura and Despeñaperros highway tunnels on the A-4, along with the Cantera, La Miel, and Santa Lucía highway tunnels on the A-44, will undergo modernization with a budget of 5.4 million euros. The work focuses on the La Cerradura and La Miel highway tunnels at kilometer points 57.7 and 61.1 on the A-44, specifically involving the installation of new safety and lighting equipment, improvements to vertical and horizontal signage, lining treatments, and waterproofing and road marking operations. To facilitate construction, the Jaén-bound lanes between kilometer points 55.8 and 61.5 on the A-44 will be closed from 8:00 AM on May 4th until June 30th, with traffic diverted to the opposite carriageway for two-way operation.

In the province of Granada, the transport department is carrying out work on the Ramoncillos, Guapa, Acebuchal, and Madroño highway tunnels on the A-7, with a budget of 16.26 million euros. Asphalt paving operations will take place in the Ramoncillos and Guapa highway tunnels in the coming weeks. To ensure safety, lanes between interchanges 869 and 855 will be closed in phases: the Almería-bound lanes will be closed from 9:00 AM on May 4th until noon on May 7th; the Málaga-bound lanes will be closed from noon on May 7th until 1:00 PM on May 8th, and from 8:00 AM on May 11th until 6:00 PM on May 12th. During closures, traffic will be diverted to the N-340 road, with appropriate signage in place.
