Implementation of two-way traffic in Avda. de Madrid (between Don Emilio Durán Durán St and Avda. Constitución)

It is due to implementate two-way traffic in Avda. de Marid between Don Emilio Durán Durán St and Avda. de la Constitución to:

- Create an alternative route for traffic going to roundabout that at present goes through "Tinajilla St - Nueva del Santísimo St - Almona de San Juan de Dios St - Santa Bárbara St" .

- Create a direct exit to the motorway through Dr. Severo Ochoa St from Gran Vía de Colón because of the lack of left turning, only available to change direction in Avda. Dr. Olóriz through Isaac Albéniz St, using Don Emilio Durán Durán St to arrive faster.

- Give alternatives to exit traffic from Albayzín and Campus de Cartuja through Cardenal Parrado St towards Dr. Severo Ochoa St, easing exit of traffic coming from Avda. Dr. Olóriz that, due to Light Rail crossroad with Avda. de Constitución, does not have enough capacity in peak hours.

Since implementation of two-way traffic in Avda. de Madrid upwards traffic must be aimed to the right lane matching with public transport lane, so will be proposed the following modifications:

- Change to parking places the reserved area of Hotel at the beginning of Avda. de Madrid creating two wider lanes needed to implementate two-way traffic in this first section.

- Rearrange current traffic in Plaza de San Isidro to reduce to the maximum traffic jams and so ease circulation of Public Transport.

Changes in Pza. San Isidro:

- Considering restrictions to traffic to be implemented after road works in Avda. Divina Pastora, as first measure has been proposed to restrict traffic in Plaza de San Isidro in the extension of Cristo de la Yedra St (that joins the beginning of Ancha de Capuchinos St and Avda. de Madrid) just for residents in San Ildefonso District, as alternative to Avda. Divina Pastora. This means to change taxi stop in Plaza San Isidro to the exit of Dr. Guirao Gea St and the implementation of a new pedestrian crossing with traffic lights at the exit of the underpass to improve pedestrian mobility and rearrange entrance of vehicles in Plaza de San Isidro that will reduce traffic jams up towards Avda. de Murcia.

Solution created:

1st To ease change of lanes and favour public transport in Plaza de San Isidro it has been proposed to implementate the following changes:

- In front of bus stop in Pza. San Isidro will be created a Bus-lane wide enough to ease big dimension buses circulation and will be created a thrid traffic lane including the current excluded area in front of Medicine Faculty.

- It will be favoured straight incorporation to right lane in Pza. San Isidro to those vehicles arriving from the right lane in Avda. de Madrid restricting traffic to only one lane at the exit of underpass where, will be reserved right lane for public transport.

2nd To reduce to the maximum traffic jams and Public Transport will be favoured:

- restriction of traffic in the lane of Plaza de San Isidro in the extension of Cristo de la Yedra St (that joins the beginning of Ancha de Capuchinos St with Avda. de Madrid) for residents of San Ildefonso district only, in the area between Cardenal Parrado - Real de Cartuja - Ancha de Capuchinos - Av de. Hospicio.
