For many drivers, the N-VI between Oleiros and Betanzos has become a kind of crossing where zebra crossings rule, the 50 kilometer limit and even several traffic lights. But pedestrians do not travel along the banks of this national road with the tranquility of a great boulevard. Reflective vests are a consolidated fashion among those who go for a walk on this dense road, where in recent months they have also lived with heavy traffic jams due to works such as the Sol y Mar de Perillo or the Is roundabout.

The Oleiros Council is about to complete one of the most ambitious and exclusive alternatives for pedestrians and cyclists, also frequent in the old asphalt. If the deadlines are met, in three months the pedestrian and cycling path that runs parallel to the San Pedro river will be ready, a path that winds at the whim of the water line and that runs for four kilometers between Is and O Seixo. The asphalt, far.

The objective is to favor non-motorized mobility, as well as the value of this fluvial environment, they point out from the City Council, which will have to pay the entire 2.9 million of the work after being discarded by Next Generation funds, in theory , due to poor management in the procedures. Oleiros has multiplied its environmental projects and green areas overlooking the sea, as shown by the many large parks along the coast. But this time he has looked inland, taking advantage of the small channel of San Pedro that will allow join a commercial area like the one in Is with the entrance gate to O Templewhere the walks and routes continue on both sides of the estuary.

The affected area of ​​the work affects more than 173,000 square meters, in which space it has been necessary to previously demolish some buildings. The projected path has a width of three meters flanked by wooden edges. New crosswalks have been included and the four kilometers have been dotted with benches, litter bins, interpretive panels, fountains and three wooden container covers.

One of the main values ​​of this path is the support areas. One is located between ras Esto and do Faro. The second, in the vicinity of the Mesn da Auga urbanization and the San Pedro soccer field, and the third on a municipally owned plot near the old coal and water mills, on the Traballo estuary. All include adapted toilets, bicycle racks, fountains, adapted recycled material benches, picnic tables, among others, which will be attended by Aligustres de Japn (Japanese privet) about 15 centimeters high.

In the area of ​​the mills, a terminal will be installed for the emptying of motorhomes in a space set aside for these vehicles, as well as a drinking water connection and a parking lot with recharging for electric vehicles.
