A-5 Madrid Highway Traffic Changes: Temporary Bypass Alleviates Congestion

A-5 Highway in Madrid Faces Temporary Traffic Changes Due to Construction. Madrid, Spain – Commuters traveling on the A-5 highway are experiencing temporary traffic changes due to the ongoing soterramiento project. A new four-lane bypass has been constructed to redirect traffic while work continues on the main highway. "A temporary four-lane bypass has been built to ensure traffic flow," explains a Telemadrid reporter in a recent video update. The video shows the bypass in operation, clearly illustrating the changes in traffic patterns. The changes affect drivers coming from Alcorcón and Móstoles heading towards Madrid, and those leaving Madrid heading south. The reporter notes that the temporary bypass has two lanes in each direction. The temporary changes are expected to last for the duration of the soterramiento project. The project aims to improve the infrastructure and reduce traffic congestion in the long term, creating a better transportation system for the city.
